As a self-professed (and rather obsessed) product junkie, I have spent a great deal of time trying many different products that I think might be good for my hair and make it grow longer. I have found, in my hair journey, that there are some very effective hair products from brands that seem to cater to straighter hair types that also work very well on my natural, fine, dry, porous, brittle, 4a/b hair. From conditioners that claim to moisturize and/or strengthen strands, to serums that are designed to deliver high-wattage shine, if it sounds good, chances are that I’ve bought it. If you don’t mind forking over some extra cash on your quest for healthier hair, you might want to give these brands a go.

Rene Furterer

Easily recognized by its distinctive forest green and yellow packaging, Rene Furterer is a botanically based haircare line that is formulated in France. Their supplements work very well and they have a whole system designed for thinning hair including intensive scalp treatments that are designed to stimulate growth at the hair root. Their Karité Intense Nourishing Mask is rich, creamy and really melts into the hair to completely coat and pamper each hair, soothing and smoothing the cuticle layer and adding shine.
