With natural ingredients like shea butter, silk protein & Jamaican black castor oil, Shea Moisture products help to strengthen and facilitate hair growth. Whether someone has curly, coily or kinky hair, this hair care brand has the perfect products to achieve the ultimate look.
The Shea Moisture curl mousse will allow Teyana’s stylist to perfect her finger waves, while the Shea Moisture defining and styling gel, will make for a super strong hold. “Shea Moisture is overall a good product, and with these products we’ll be making sure her curls are defined, the hair is holding, and there’s shine as usual because I want to give a fresh hydrated luxury look on the red carpet.”
