Hair grease has been around for many years. It was once a source of pride in African American households with long, thick hair. However, for a long time, store brands did not use quality ingredients.
Personally, I aimed to move away from the basic components of commercial grease, such as petroleum jelly and mineral oil, by opting for Candelilla Wax and avocado butter instead.
Incorporating hair grease and oils into your hair routine helps to moisturize the hair and scalp, seal in moisture, and reduce frizz and breakage.
Therefore, the answer is YES, your afro hair does require grease. How much? Although the general recommendation is to oil or grease your scalp regularly, daily application might not be necessary. Some hair types may need daily oiling, while for others, this could cause buildup. It's crucial to pay attention to your hair's needs. Modify the frequency of application based on your hair type, aiming for approximately 2-4 times a week.
