Shea Moisture

Looking to achieve @ViolaDavis’ flawless #GoldenGlobes fro? Hair Stylist extraordinaire @jamikawilson applied a small amount of our NEW #RedPalmOil & #CocoaButter #Curl Stretch Pudding, which helped to elongate and define the style. She used an #Afro pick and a blow dryer with a diffuser to stretch out the #curls. "I love the fact that women are embracing their natural hair and playing with texture," Wilson says. "There’s more experimentation on the carpet, more embracing of natural texture, more creative styles. It’s gorgeous and exciting!" Don’t you agree?!

Why choose cruelty-free? Because the opposite of that is cruel. To test hairsprays and other products, some companies pay laboratories to smear harsh chemicals directly onto animals’ bare skin or into their eyes. Animals used in these experiments aren’t given any pain relief, and most are confined to cramped, barren cages and killed without ever being able to feel sunshine or grass or know what it feels like to be loved. Cut products tested on animals out of your life, and always shop cruelty-free.
