From butters, oils and creams to foams, gels, and conditioners, natural haircare is a booming business with lots of enthusiastic customers searching for the right products for their hair.
So when one American hairdresser took to social media to debunk the belief that all these products are needed to keep our curls defined, popping and shiny, there was outrage from many black women.
