Once in a while, a brand comes along that makes you wonder why you didn’t know about them a lot sooner. That pretty much sums up how I feel about the TGIN (Thank God It’s Natural”> line. Easily skyrocketing into my favorites category, TGIN has a solid line offering rooted in affordability, and quality ingredients.
One of the first things that stood out to me about the TGIN Moist Collection was value. All of the products are 12oz, and are priced at $14.99 regularly. Even without special discounts (although who am I to turn down a sale”>, that is a great value considering that some products charge the same or more for 8oz or less of product. I don’t know about you, but I’m heavy handed. I need enough product to last. And tgin definitely delivers. Founder Chris-Tia Donaldson, a Harvard trained lawyer and author of the best-selling book Thank God I’m Natural: The Ultimate Guide to Caring for Natural Hair, and her team definitely set out to prove that good quality products don’t have to be expensive.
And with their clean branding and labeling, can’t you just see this product making its way to the shelves of ULTA, Target, and more? I surely hope so. Let me show you why.

Performance
There is a reason why I mentioned this shampoo on my list of top gentle shampoos for natural hair. Not only is the shampoo free of sulfates, but it is honestly one of the MOST moisturizing shampoos I’ve ever used. Seriously. Naturals like CharyJay rave about this shampoo – with good reason. The shampoo has tons of slip, making it great for keeping hair finger detangled while you wash. It gently cleanses the scalp and hair, removing buildup without stripping. And best of all, the shampoo truly is moisturizing and softening. If I didn’t know any better, I wouldn’t even bother conditioning after using this shampoo. Yes, it’s that good.
