As a curly girl myself, I can confirm that maintaining naturally curly strands is both a blessing and a curse. Hear me out. Sure, there is always someone with a lovely compliment and/or grilling sesh about how in the world I keep it all in check (FYI–I never wake up like this.). On the other hand, there’s the cost that comes with test-driving an innumerable amount of products followed by copious amounts of mixing and matching to nail that perfect cocktail. If you know, you know. This is why I always look forward to this time of year, because the best natural hair holiday gifts are basically ready-to-use routines for a much smaller price.
Better yet, if you’re a curly girl that’s a routine down pact, bless a curl-friend who’s been struggling with her strands instead—sharing is caring, right? Here’s where I come in. Just so you aren’t wandering around the store with no clue where to start, I searched high and low to find the best products and gift sets that I’m sure anyone with curls, coils and kinks will love. Keep scrolling to this year’s top holiday must-haves.
