Two jobs in a 100 ml tube: condition the hair, and ease the tight, dry feel of the scalp underneath it.

The second half is the one that usually gets ignored until a child starts pulling faces at the comb. Natural oils and moisturising agents handle the lengths, sealing water in so the hair stays soft between washes. Conditioning polymers smooth the surface, and that is where the shine comes from. It is a small tube because you use it in small amounts, worked into the areas that need it rather than slathered across the whole head.

Massage it in gently and distribute it evenly, focusing on dry ends and any parting that feels tight. Use it regularly rather than occasionally, since this kind of product works cumulatively. Made for children with curly and coily textures, roughly type 2A to 3A.

Application tips

Shampoo first, then squeeze the water out before this goes on, because conditioner will not stick to soaking hair. Rub a small amount between your palms and lay it down the lengths.

Use your fingertips to work a little into the scalp itself, massaging in circles for a minute. Leave it while you finish the bath, then rinse in cool water, which closes the surface down and leaves more shine than hot.

Results

Combing becomes possible straight out of the bath, and the scalp feels calmer rather than tight and itchy under a fresh set of plaits.

The 100ml tube is small on purpose, a child sized amount rather than a family bottle. Curls dry soft and springy, and nothing heavy is left behind, so a fine head of hair still has volume the next morning.
