For all of the people saying women go natural because they are too broke for relaxers and weaves, YOU ARE TRIPPIN. Spending $60-80 every 6-8 weeks on relaxers is NOTHING in comparison to the amount I've spent on natural hair products.
When I first went natural, it wasn't really a big thing. Many brands focused on women with relaxed hair so women had to DIY their own products. Today, just about every brand has their own line of curly girl friendly products and their price tag isn't cheap. This post is to help those starting out, or those who really can't afford to spend $15 on a small ounce bottle of conditioner you'll use every couple of washes. If you have any affordable favorites, let me know!
