Africa's Best Kids Originals Growth Oil Remedy 8oz
An oil does different work to a cream. It seals rather than hydrates, which is why it goes on last in a routine, and why it is the answer to hair that keeps drying out an hour after you moisturised it.
This one blends oils with strengthening proteins, aimed at children's scalps and the delicate hair growing from them. It conditions deeply, softens the strand and helps keep moisture where you put it. Fewer brittle ends means less breakage during combing and styling, and hair that keeps its length rather than losing it from the bottom.
Sequence matters more here than most people are told. Water, or a water based moisturiser, goes on first, then the oil goes over the top to hold it there. Oil on its own, straight onto dry hair, seals in whatever dryness was already sitting in the strand.
Warm a few drops between your palms and work them through the ends and lengths, and use a little on the scalp if it feels dry and tight. It goes further than you expect, so start small.
8oz bottle. Suits dry, dull children's hair that needs sealing more than it needs another moisturiser.

Application tips
Oils spread further than you expect, so start with a few drops.
Part the hair in rows, apply along the scalp, then rub the palms together and smooth the rest over the lengths and ends. Damp hair is better, since the oil seals the water in rather than sitting on a dry surface.
Two or three times a week on fine hair, daily on coarse or coily texture.
Results
Delicate hair feels softer and less liable to snap when it is combed.
Dry lengths look brighter and the ends stop looking wispy and frayed. The oil is light enough not to flatten fine hair or leave a greasy patch on a school jumper. Styles hold better because the hair is conditioned rather than parched, and the whole head sits smoother by the end of the week.
