Answer 1

I’m natural (African American) And even our shampoo differ from the shampoo sold outside of the ethnic aisle. The sulfate found in typical shampoo strips our hair of the natural oils. So we usually look for sulfate free shampoo. About once or twice a month we’ll wash with “regular” shampoo to get a good cleanse. We usually follow that with a deep condition and hot oil treatment.
