10 Tools Every Naturalista Needs

Going natural involves a great deal of experimentation with products as well as hairstyles. Finding a set of tools doesn’t involve as much trial and error. If you want to maintain your natural hair, you need the right tools. Ladies, we have complied a list of our top ten tools every Team Natural member needs.

1. Comb Set

You can find a comb set with wide tooth comb, rat tail comb, and fine tooth comb at your local beauty mart. Combs are a great source for detangling and shaping your hair.

2. Spray Bottle

You can fill it up with water or mix up a natural hair concoction to moisturize your hair.

3. Satin Cap

You can’t go a night without having a satin cap on your head.

4. Satin Pillow

If you are wild sleeper like me or sometimes your satin cap falls off your head, the satin pillow is always great to have.

5. Bobby Pins

Use to create various hairstyles as well as tucking up fly a-ways.

6. Elastic bands

Ouch- less bands without metal pieces are essential for buns and ponytails.

7. Hair Clips

Use to section your hair and to hold your hair in place.

8. Rollers

Whether its foam rollers, flex rods, or color foam formers, you will be able to achieve a natural curly style.

9. Flat Iron

If you want to try using heat, the flat iron is the best bet to get straighten hair.

10. Your Hands

The best tool of all is your hands. Okay, your fingers, too. Massaging your scalp and putting oil in your tresses involve those pretty hands of yours.

    I wouldn’t agree that a naturalista “needs” a flat iron. I’ve been natural for over 6 years and haven’t used one yet, and don’t plan to.

    also, I’ve known quite a few people to use flat irons on their natural hair and their hair ended up damaged or with permanently straightened ends.
