And once something gets inside a loc, it doesn’t just rinse out like it does with straight or curly hair. So when someone asks me, “Is TRESemmé shampoo good for dreads?” my brain doesn’t jump to…
Finding the right shampoo and conditioner isn’t about choosing the most popular brand it’s about matching products to your specific scalp type and hair needs. Many people struggle because they shop based on trends, scent, or ratings instead of understanding moisture balance, protein levels, and scalp health. The key to finally getting results is identifying…
People want a straight answer. Is Prose actually good or just smart marketing?

Let’s Start with the Real Question If you’ve got low porosity hair, you know the drill. Your strands repel moisture like a raincoat. Products sit on top. Oils weigh it down.

You know that weird moment when your skin is breaking out, and nothing you try makes a difference, and suddenly someone tells you, “Use an anti-dandruff shampoo on your face”? It sounds ridiculous. Almost like a meme. But here’s the twist it’s actually one of the few things science agrees on when it comes to…
There’s something gentle and comforting about coconut milk. It reminds people of softness, nourishment, comfort, and moisture. So when brands place “coconut milk shampoo” on the bottle, it feels like a promise of hydrated, smoother, happier hair. But here’s the truth: Black hair has its own personality. It behaves differently. It reacts differently. And ingredients…

That creamy white liquid promises “nourishing hydration” and a “strengthening blend of coconut milk, egg white protein, and coconut oil.” It sounds tropical and healthy but does it really deliver? Let’s unpack what’s inside this formula and what it…
Some shampoos are everywhere. You see them in drugstores, in your friend’s bathroom, even in old hair videos you used to binge when you were trying to figure out your curl pattern. Aussie Moist is one of those shampoos. People swear by it for slip. Others say it dries out their curls. And if you…
I talk to a lot of people who come to me with the same worried look. They’re in the shower, they’re doing everything right, yet the drain looks like a small tragedy every morning. And honestly, losing hair feels heavier than it sounds. You start running your fingers through your scalp like you’re searching for…
I’ve lost count of how many times someone has asked me, usually with a half-confused face, “Okay Michael, what exactly does a clarifying shampoo do?
