Top Curly Hair Tools And Accessories

 

Having the right products, tools and accessories can make a BIG difference when you're starting off your natural hair journey. Yeah, they can actually make your wash day easier and shorter, your hairstyles more put together and bring you a lot less stress.

 

Though there are many gadgets you can buy, and they'll all seem like a valid purchase, the truth is you probably need way less than you think to grow your hair healthy (please don't blow up your budget!).

 

Below you can find a list of names with links to some of my favourite tools and accessories, shops and hair brands. Please note that some of the links, not all, are affiliate links that will help support the blog and allow me to continue to make free content for you. I only recommend products and services that genuinely love and have given me great results. Thank you for your support!
