Like most folks, I love chocolate. But we can’t eat it all the time, right? Luckily, I’ve found the perfect substitute for a chocolate-fueled sugar binge: hair products.
So the next time you feel a sweets craving coming on, pick up one of these 20 products to indulge in, guilt-free.
Eden Body Works Coconut Shea All-Natural Cleansing CoWash
Why It’s Sweet: At under $10 for 16oz, the setup is already sweet. Not only is this product the perfect wash day companion, it has slip for days and is curly-girl friendly. You can’t be mad at that!
tgin Moisture-Rich Sulfate Free Shampoo
Why It’s Sweet: I sing love songs to this shampoo all the time. It is the most moisturizing, detangling, smoothing, and shine imparting shampoo I’ve ever seen in my life. Others may come close, but no product can touch this Moist Collection shampoo.
Miss Jessie’s Pillow Soft Curls
Why It’s Sweet: Most curlies hate day 1 hair, because it tends to lack volume and has a little too much definition. Pillow Soft Curls solves that problem, leaving you with soft-touchable, and defined yet voluminous curls on day 1.
Koils By Nature Moisturizing Shealoe Leave-in Conditioner
Why It’s Sweet: Naturals of all textures love this stuff. It’s creamy, moisturizing, curly-girl friendly, and contains wonderful ingredients that keep hair nourished and healthy. No wonder why it’s called the other creamy crack!
Camille Rose Naturals Curl Maker *New formula
Why It’s Sweet: Sometimes, formula changes are good. In this case, they’re great. I wanted to like the old pink Curl Maker formula, but I could never quite get it to “work”. It seemed like no matter what I did, I ended up with white flaking and frizz. The new formula lives up to its claims of no more flaking and providing more definition. Yes on both counts. The new formula is a winner!
Wonder Curl Curl Control Styling Lotion
Why It’s Sweet: A new addition to the Wonder Curl line, the Curl Control Styling Lotion delivers touchable definition for all textures, while blocking humidity and nourishing strands with organic aloe vera juice and Pro-Vitamin B5. It is non drying, silicone-free, and free of parabens and other harsh preservatives.
Eva NYC Therapy Session Hair Mask
Why It’s Sweet: Holy Grail Alert! Ever since I grabbed my first jar of Therapy Session, I haven’t been able to stop. It smooths, adds shine, strengthens, and rejuvenates even the most damaged hair. If you haven’t tried it already, you must do so at least once. I promise you’ll love it.
Hydratherma Naturals Scalp Soothing Shampoo Bar
Why It’s Sweet: Skeptical about shampoo? Try a bar. Shampoo bars are an amazing alternative to synthetic shampoos that can stress your tresses. Made with all natural oils–like coconut, olive, castor, and rice bran–and infused with aloe, peppermint, and tea tree, this bar is a scalp tingling sensory treat. Even when I’m not using the bar, I can’t help but sniff it. In fact, I’m sniffing it right now…
As I Am Curling Jelly
Why It’s Sweet: Hands down, As I Am Curling Jelly has become my go-to summer curl definer. It has tons of slip and works easily through the hair. The Curling Jelly provides tons of definition without sacrificing in the volume department, and will easily allow you to achieve day 3 and 4 hair. When paired with the As I Am Leave-In, shiny, bouncy, and defined curls will always be on the menu.
Deepthi Organics Moroccan Beauty Oil
Why It’s Sweet: Other companies sell you argan oil “serums” [more on oils vs. serums] packed with cones at steep prices. Deepthi Organics Moroccan Beauty Oil is certified organic, pure argan oil with organic essential oils of orange and niaouli. That’s IT. It works wonders on both the face and hair without burning a hole in your wallet.
Soultanicals Mango Dip Detangling Slip

Packed with rhasoul clay, banana, cocoa, honey, and more, these truffles nourish, add shine, tame frizzies, and deep condition like none other. In fact, they’re a staple ingredient in my henna mix.

Why It’s Sweet: An unlikely suspect in an unassuming mauve-ish jar, this jolly rancher sweet smelling deep conditioner is marketed as a part of their Keratin Hair Smoothing System. Who doesn’t want smooth-feeling curls? It won’t straighten your curls, but it will deliver touchable, butter-like smoothness, moisture, and shine.
It’s a 10 Miracle Leave-In Plus Keratin
