3. Rapunzel
Personally I tried Rapunzel on a whim based on a recommendation and I was not disappointed. Rapunzel’s mantra is all about taking your hair to new lengths, the owner and founder Rasheda Stewart, had the same struggles most of us had where she couldn’t retain length past her shoulders.
Through a ton a research and work Rasheda was able to not only retain length beyond bra strap length but also decided to launch her product line in 2010.
In 2010 she created a platform to educate and help women and provide products based on protein for strength, and moisture. When you use the conditioner you literally will feel something tingly on your scalp and the company explains that they have infused the product with elements that stimulate your follicles and encourage growth.
What’s cool about this company is that they built their product line slowly with the same focus and direction they had in the beginning making sure every product is made with superb quality.
Our picks from the line:
Protein Deep Conditioner -$42.00 (32oz)
Hydrating and detangling Shampoo (sulfate Free) – $15.00 (8oz)
4. B.A.S.K Beauty
Chocolate, vanilla*, sugar cane, sweet liqueur, are just some of the incredible flavors you will find when exploring this businesses product line. B.A.S.K means Beauty Assortment for the Sun-Kissed, and their products are literally created so that you feel like you are visiting a spa everyday when you enter your bathroom.
Here’s the thing if you are not into desserts, fruits and exotic ingredients then BASK is not the company for you, but if you like a savory scent and a quality product then check them out.
The Owner Rashida Jefferson founded the company in the summer of 2011. She loved spas and gourmet food using those experiences to create quality products for our hair and skin. Don’t you just love a woman who can appreciate the finer things in life?
Our picks from the line:
Vanilla Whiskey Reparative Hair Soak -$20.00
Silk and Honey Latte Detangling Hair Milk – $14.00
5. Qhemet Biologics
You cannot have a post like this one and not mention the veteran in the game. Qhemet is an Egyptian name that means ‘black’ and the product line was created out of a profound respect for traditional beauty where nature is the foundation for the creation of each product.
The owner wanted to put an end to dry hair which is indigenous to black hair, and with that said, creates blends based on historically great ingredients. Castor oil*, Olive oil*, Sesame oil*, Palm Nut Oils* and botanicals such as Chamomile, Hibiscus*, and Honey* bush, pure organic MSM are just some of the charming ingredients added to these quality products.
There is a reason Qhemet Biologics remains relevant, and we look forward to further expansion of this trusted brand.

Trina’s Natural Scalp Stimulator is a product inspired by A Mother’s Luv. Through prayer and determination A Mother’s Luv is powerful inspiration. When my daughter was diagnosed with Alopecia Areata at the age of 10 it was very difficult for her to deal with her extreme loss of hair and the kids at school making fun of her. Drying her tears and trying to rebuild her self esteem became a losing battle. Doctors said she would never grow back a full head of hair. But through the Grace of God and inspiration A Mother’s Luv conquered those notions. Here we are today a full head of healthy curly hair later. Trina’s Natural Scalp Stimulator is a product from A Mother’s Luv.

Congratulations to all of the Brands mentioned. I’m sure the writer couldn’t share the 100’s of new Brands out there but, I appreciate the introduction to a few. I have used Oyin Handmade, Amazing Botanicals and Karens Body Beautiful! I am in Love with those brands but, will try a few mentioned. I’ve heard about the natty

I have so much ABLove for this company and its founders. The latest Honey Condish whipped formula has now become my #1 curl product that does not leave my hair feeling greasy after application, then dried out the next day. My curls maintain their shape after air drying and over the course of a few days my hair is still manageable, still soft, still shiny. I have never found a product that didn’t leave my hair crunchy when the curls dried or dried out looking with product residue until now. Thank you Amazing Botanicals.
