I’ll be the first one to say that natural hair care can be on the expensive side if you’re looking for high-quality products with natural ingredients that will actually work for your hair type and texture. It seems like every mineral oil and alcohol-filled cream and gel is easy to find for cheap while the good stuff is elsewhere or breaking the bank.

Lucky for all of us who are proudly balling on a budget, there are some great products we can invest in that are under $15 and $10!

Yup, that’s right; a head full of beautiful defined curls brought to you by effective natural hair products that won’t empty your pockets? Count me in!

Below are 7 amazing, budget-friendly products for hydrated and defined curls!

1. Aunt Jackie’s Curl La La Defining Curl Custard

Free of parabens, sulfates, and packed with shea butter and olive oil, Aunt Jackie’s Curl Lala Defining Curl Custard is a great moisturizer for waves, curls, and coils.

The consistency is thick enough to penetrate and softens thick. coarse hair, but still lightweight for finer and thinner textures. It gives a healthy luster, a flexible hold, and defines all types of curls, coils, and waves.

It is very similar to a rich leave in conditioner or hair pudding in the sense that a little goes a long way; so a small amount on damp, detangled hair should work wonders for you!
