Didn't do much for mine - you might want to save your money and find something else.

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".

I have thick curly dark blonde hair that can be dry and staticky sometimes and I found it worked just fine.

Good Question. I am not sure about this product for african american hair. I know that it works awesome for my hair. I am Native American.

I'm of Irish/Scottish descent. My hair was getting really frizzy because I have a lot more grayhair now. I LOVE this product. I'd given up on having shiny hair again. This really works. So,I don't know about African American hair, but I think it's worth a try!

No I am not African American. The shampoo didn't work for me. Perhaps I didn't give it enough time to work. You should try it and see if it works for you.

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 think it was originally created for African American hair, but it works great on my extremely fine, thick, naturally wavy, very dry Caucasian hair. I'd get the moisturizing conditioner to go with it. I think it works as well as Bumble & Bumble Invisible Oil shampoo and conditioner, and it's a whole lot less expensive. Hope that helps.

yes, i am of mix descent an my hair is wavy, dry and frizzy at times, an it works wonders on my, wont use any other dryer, on natural hair if you use a little natural oil it will even give it a curl

A little... if you use right after washing your hair and blow dry it helps. But, if you go out in humid air, it will frizz again. At least, it did on my hair. I have African American hair with a slight curl.

Well my hair was dry, as I color as well as highlight it! This works for me! I can say for myself it's well worth it! My hair looks healthier, is shinier and stays styled! I can blow dry & go or just spray and crunch up with fingers and let dry! Helps with humid days too! But as I am saying I am speaking on my behalf! Please do not come back on me if it doesn't work for u! I have well water and high iron, and other chemicals so I need 12 Benefits!

I apologize that I'm unable to answer your question but I can offer you this statement. This product works well on my hair. I'm not sure if the texture of your hair will perform as you would like, but it really depends on what you are trying to do with your hair. If you are going to use this product anyway without consulting a hair expert, then please do a strand test as the instructions on the box suggest. You don't want to be bald! It really could take out your hair if you don't test the chemicals first. Some people will tell you yeah go ahead try it, it can't hurt, but they don't have your hair or the cells you have. Everyone is different and people sometimes don't pay attention to instructions and wind up very hurt or damaged by the products. please ask someone you trust. If you don't have anyone to ask professionally, then read the instructions carefully and follow the strand test. I stress this because I had a african american friend who thought that because she was black that she would not have any problems, she used the product without reading the instructions and all her hair came out in the sink. She forgot that she was taking medication also and that certain chemicals don't mix. It may sound strange but she was very upset and she ended up with bald spots all around her head and she had to wear a wig for six months. She's better now but the experience was terrible for her. I hope that I was able to help a little bit. Good luck with Mizani!

I haven't had much success on dry hair. Spraying in damp hair and blow drying it while twisting sections of it worked best for me. (FYI i have stick straight hair)

I've used this on African-American hair and it works perfectly. Just use high heat and be sure to drag it from the roots to the ends very slowly. But be careful - don't burn your hair.

I don't know how well it works for black hair because my hairtype is very different. I can tell you I didn't even come close to finishing the bottle because my hair felt damaged and dry.

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!
