Black Girls Don't Forget!!
What the girls need to remember to take care of their curls and coils in college!
1. Even if you plan on keeping your hair in styles you'll eventually need to do your natural hair inbetween styles. Make sure you bring your go to products for simple styles like twist outs and slick backs. Don't forget your moisturizers and scalp oils too.
2. You’ll need to get your own styling tools especially if you're used to sharing with your family. Grab your favorite detangling brush or comb for wash day. You'll need a rat tailed comb to keep your parts clean too. Can't forget your edge brush either, cause is the hair done without edges? You'll definitely need a blow dryer for wash day too!
3. Hair Accessories!! Of course you'll need your typical hair elastics and bobby pins but scrunchies are such a good alternative to reduce breakage. Scarves are also great for setting gel styles and for easily taming hair when you don't have time to style it. Claw clips are great for styling braids, mini twists, and straightened hair. Can't forget braid charms which are great for personalizing mini twists, plaits, and protective styles!

As Black girls prepare for college, it's crucial to remember that caring for textured hair requires special attention and the right products. One key to maintaining healthy curls is ensuring you have the necessary styling tools at hand. A quality detangling brush and a wide-tooth comb will make your wash days much smoother. Also, consider investing in a blow dryer to reduce drying time. When packing, prioritize moisturizing products such as curl creams, leave-in conditioners, and oils that cater specifically to your hair type. Natural oils like jojoba and argan oil not only add moisture but also protect hair from heat damage when styling. Styles like twist-outs and braids are not only fashionable but also protective, helping to keep your hair healthy during busy semester schedules. Hair accessories play a vital role in maintaining your hairstyle and can be both functional and stylish. Scrunchies are highly recommended for securing hair without causing breakage. Braid charms and scarves can add a pop of color and personality to your looks. Lastly, don’t forget a good edge control product; having well-groomed edges can elevate any hairstyle. With these essentials, Black college girls can confidently embrace their natural beauty and make a statement on campus!
