Obia Natural Hair Care
Amaze-balls.
Phenomenal.
Awe-inspiring.
Simply divine.
Those are just a few of the words that come to mind when Obia Natural Hair Care comes to mind. You guys think I’m exaggerating — but I’m really not. I love every single thing about the Obia brand. Why, you ask? Let me tell you.
Curl Enhancing Custard
You know the little “hallelujah” looking Android emoji that folks use on Instagram? That’s what pops into my head whenever I see this product. Simply put, I love it dearly. So much, that I’ve already ordered 2 more jars (and I’m not even finished with the one they sent me”>. I am a product junkie, and product hoarder. No, you can’t have any. #itsallmine

Performance:
I mean, the picture collage speaks for itself. My curls popped. My edges were LAID. But what you can’t see in the picture is how soft they are. I seriously kept touching my hair ALL day. As far as consistency is concerned, the Custard reminds me of As I Am Smoothing Gel – but it leaves my hair much softer. The fragrance is incredibly mild, and almost undetectable. I found that it treated my heat damage with the same love as my curls – no stringy spaghetti noodle ends for me!
