I receive questions about the hair products I use, and I admitted that I really only use one product (hair stylists everywhere shake their heads). And, of course, I promised to blog about it!
I know there are a million other awesome products out there, but for daily use I’ve found I only really need one!
Here it is…
Just shine spray! Shea Moisture Coconut Hibiscus Hold & Shine Daily Moisture. I like this brand because it smells amazing and I can buy it at Target. Easy peasy.
I use this on my ends nearly every day to give them moisture and shine. On the first day I wash my hair, I flat iron curl the whole thing. Then every other day after that that I don’t wash it, I just touch up the top/outside layer of my hair and use this spray.
Years ago I was an avid hairspray user (hello under-curled bangs of the 1990s), but a few years back I stopped using it on the daily. Now I only use it for special occasions (like for beehive status big hair). And I’ve never really tried many other products, so if you have any suggestions for my (naturally frizzy) hair, I’m all ears!
I definitely would like to mix up my hair routine with new styles, but I have to admit that I love the simplicity of having just a few go-to styles that I wear most days! xx. Elsie

Check out Ulta. I got all our Shea Moisture products buy two get one free. Their soaps are amazing, too.
Shea Moisture makes some really great products. And yes, a flat iron curls tutorial would be great.
I’m going to have to try this one! My hair product collecting is pretty weak. Ps: You’ve got a killer figure! Never see you wearing curve hugging clothes but damn!
I know how to do flat iron curls, but I would love to see your technique. I do like a lot of the Shea Moisture line, but have never tried this one .. My fave is the Curl Enhancing Smoothie. I will try it soon. One go to style of mine is the Bantu Knots ( twisting sections of hair into small buns) at night, then releasing in morning. It gives you great heat free curls. I’m sure your spray would work great on those! Can’t wait to see your video.
My question, is it good for dyed hair? I have crazy purple hair, and all of my styling products tend to take the purple out faster.
Also, where is your dress from Elsie? I’ve been looking for a basic cotton-y black dress for some time!
I would love to try something like this and get away from hairspray myself. It’s just too much hell on my (also naturally frizzy) hair. Maybe stopping by target to pick up a bottle of this stuff the next time I’m out and about.
I would love to see a flat iron curls video! Love your hair Elsie!
A flat iron curl video would be fantastic!! I’ve tried to do it before but I just looked like I’d been dragged through a hedge backwards!!
I love your hair! I’very never tried any of these products before and I have been searching for something to tame my wild mane. My hair is super frizzy and curly, so
I can’t wait to try this stuff!
Thanks elsie!
What shampoo and conditioner do you use ????
Yes please for the tutorial! I’ve tried so many times and just end up looking like a poodle. help!
Bring on the video!
I love using Kerastase Ciment Thermique mixed with Kerastase Elixir Ultime. Been using them together for years!

I have frizzy curly hair and I just started using Verb products and LOVE them! They have a great sea salt spray, curl cream and this amazing ghost oil which tames my hair if I leave it curly or straighten it without weighting it down.
Yes a flat iron curl video please! I wonder if the kind of flat iron you use makes a difference, because whenever I try doing it, I end up with the weirdest looking curls….
Totally helpful
So easy and so beautiful.
I have thick curly/wavy hair I have never dyed it I wonder if this product would work on my hair as I also style my hair the same way always and I am looking for a product that I can use daily without having to wash my hair every single day as I’ve been told I can damage my thick locks by doing so. I just found this product at Target for $8.99 not a bad price.
TECHNICALLY I know how to do flat-iron curls, but the more video tutorials I watch, the better I get at it. So yes please! Especially since your hair texture is more like mine. A lot of the videos I see are girls with thinner hair, which responds to heat like magic!
sounds awesome!
