Will this work for African-American hair?

I would ask your hairdresser. Using this product without a professional is a mistake. I used this product with my hairdresser applying it. It worked great BUT after about 3 month my hair started breaking and falling out. You might want to find an alternative like the wrap method. Keratin will damage your hair as well. Flat irons r better just get a good one and find out what heat setting you need. Once again ask your hair stylist. Flat irons don't change the hair a chemical will damage your hair guaranteed.

This product made my hair straight yes but it also made it extremely frizzy. Idk how it would work on your hair ... I have really really thick curly hair. Look into keratin I heard it works better

Hm...I'm not sure. I have pretty frizzy/curly hair and it did fine, but I suggest trying it on a strand first to see.

No, this won't work for African American skin. Theses devices target dark pigment and are dangerous for darker skin colors.

Yes it will, I have brown hair with natural red highlights and when I used this definitely the red was for sure more prominent. It makes a very bright deep red and is by far my favorite color to use on my hair! So I'm sure that if it worked on my dark hair and turned it a deep red it will work even better for yours!

It depends on what hair type you have. I have African American hair and it completely dried my hair out, but my roommate had white people hair and she said the product worked well for her. She did use the conditioner at all

Yes, it does work on African American hair. This is the first time I've used it for my dry, damaged, over-processed hair. My hair is thick and coarse and after the first application, feels and looks soft and healthy! Instead of leaving it on for 10 minutes per the instructions, I left it on for 30 minutes and put a plastic cap over it. So far, it's a keeper!

I don't know of any reason why that wouldn't work. But when and how you use it depends a lot on your hair type and style, so be sure to do a little research to make sure it's for you before you use it.

I would think so, as long as the hair is dark. It supposedly doesn't work on light hair. My husband wants to try it, but hasn't yet, so I'm not 100% sure but I would think yes.

I don't think this would take for light coloured hair. I see it working on hair that is naturally dark brown or black.

Hello I'm African American. Yes the product works! I have using it for 2 months! My fine thin hair is growing in well and the shampoo dosen't strip my hair. However I do follow up with a deep condition and a leave in condition. My name is Evelyn and I'm on YouTube.. (MyNaturalMyChoice) Haven't made any videos in while, but soon I will return! I hope this helps.

I do not know it works the Redken version that I bought. It works fine but it is kind of bulky to use.however it does my hair very well. And I have African American hair.

Bought this for dry itchy scalp, but it is much less drying than my last shampoo. It should be ok for African Americans.

I'm going to try and answer this the best I can for you. I don't have African American hair, but its kinda dark, like a light brown. Some colors did show up. But I found that if you wet the white one a little and out it as a base, the colors show up great. Hope this helps:)

I don't know what you mean by "African American hair". I am Egyptian, therefore American-African or African American to use the term imposed by European-Americans. I have friends who are American-Africans and none of us have "dry, brittle African American hair" as a standard. Since all types of human hair is composed of the same substance, is your question does this product work for dry and brittle hair.(PERIOD). If yes, I would guess that the answer to your question may be determined by what is causing your hair to be "dry, brittle".

Yes, it will work well on black hair, and it may slightly intensify the color you have. The predominant thing it will do is create more shine, vibrance, and manageability.

Yes it's designed for African American hair, it's great for anyone but it's often found in the section for AAhair. There are several different formulas but the one here is a great one to start with. All of the Shea Moisture products are outstanding!
