I just have to send a shout out to Stacie for asking about the product line I am attributing my hair victory with Zoë too.  A simple post on facebook about whether or not anyone had use the product got me investigating and trying it based simply on it’s name and their website.  So, for my fellow moms of African American children, or any readers who are African American,  I would highly recommend using products from Uncle Funky’s Daughter.  I have struggled to find the right product that would really help define Zoë’s curls for the long term and keep them from shrinking up and appearing frizzy.  It has been a two year struggle and I have tried lots and lots of things.  What I really wanted was something that was natural, designed and sold by African Americans for other African Americans.  I will say I have found it.

I used their curly magic on Zoë’s hair after her bath last night–it needs to be used on hair that is really wet.  The definition in her curls is awesome–after sleeping on it still wet.  I will need to change our hair routine a bit and try to do the washing in the morning so that her hair can air dry with the product on it.

Here is what it looked like upon wake up

This is never what her hair looks like when we wake up.  I also have their thirsty curls to spray in that will give the hair a little more definition but not undo what the curly magic has done.  I have to say I would recommend their products.  I am finally happy to have found a product that will allow me to let Zoë keep her hair down–which is what she prefers.  If you are looking for a good natural hair product–check these out.
