Questions

What is a pre-poo?

A pre-poo is a treatment applied before shampooing to soften hair and loosen tangles, so wash day is easier on the strands. Nature's Little Secret makes two: Fenugreek Detangling and Papaya 2-in-1.

Are Nature's Little Secret products for curly hair?

The range is designed with curly, coily and dry hair in mind, though the shampoos and conditioners can be used on most hair types.

How often should I use the deep conditioners?

Once a week suits most people. Very dry or chemically treated hair may like it more often.

What is the difference between the Okra Gel and the Irish Moss Styling Cream?

The Okra Curl Defining Gel gives more hold and definition. The Irish Moss Styling Cream is softer, with more moisture and less hold, and suits twist-outs and braid-outs.
