There are countless expensive balms, serums and creams for curls and coils, says Neil Moodie, editorial hairstylist and founder of Neil Moodie Studio. But one affordable alternative has become his favurite: “One of the best products [under $13] is the Mixed Chicks Straightening Serum,” he says. “We now also stock it in the Neil Moodie Studio. It has thermal protection, is humidity-resistant and cuts drying time in half.” Even better, Moodie says that this affordable serum works on both natural and relaxed hair, and reduces flyaways immediately. “This is all thanks to hydrolyzed keratin, silk amino acids, chamomile and rosemary extract,” he says.
