I have always loved voluminous hair, plain or curly. Thick hair has a lot of volume and gives an appearance of abundance. If arranged nicely, the wavy looks of the curls are pleasant to look. Thick mane was always an attraction to me.
While having thick hair is quite beneficial and glamorous, cleaning and maintaining them can be tough. Thick hair is often curly and can attract dirt, grease quite easily. Dragged by hair issues such as thinning, drying of hair, oily scalp and dandruff which are quite common nowadays, it is hard to get the correct shampoo for a specific hair type. Thick hair can often be a victim of one or all of these problems.
With so many products out in the market, it is a challenge to get the right shampoo that is capable of smoothing, providing the necessary volume, natural and organic and leaving the hair as shining as is on the hair models. The advents of new brands and new shampoo types have definitely added to the crowd on the shelves, one can easily get drowned in the variants adding to the confusion.
When looking for a shampoo, I would always look for a shampoo that does not leave my hair dry, is safe from chemicals and provides the necessary moisturizer to retain the natural glow.

WriterArtist, Thank you for practical information, pretty pictures and product lines.
In particular, I appreciate your explanations of how thick hair behaves and misbehaves and what cleaning agents, such as conditioners, shampoos and soaps, attempt to do and where the first two succeed and the third tries but flounders.
It's interesting that almond and coconut are so helpful since knowing how to make them into conditioners and shampoos doubles the healthy fun of knowing how to make them into milk (which I drink instead of moo-lk ;-D).
Particularly the hydrating shampoo looks persuasive even as all your products make sense as crowd-pleasing anniversary, birthday, holiday gifts.
Everything seems so hair- and scalp- and skin-friendly that I wonder, what would they be like as an alternative to soap?
Dear Katie,
Though my hair wouldn't classify as curly, I do have wavy hair that gets entangled often. I am wary about the ingredients in the shampoo and choose them carefully. My favourites shampoo are those that are organic and use aloe vera ingredient.
Once again another of your articles perfect for me, I have very curly, very thick hair. Thank you for the great product review meeting my specific product heeds.
