By ilead sayidagroup · Updated November 20, 2017

cruelty free curl products

We all have our Holy Grails as Curlies, Coilies, and Wavies.

But if you’re an animal lover, you care about the way your hair care products are made and tested, and shop cruelty free exclusively! Fortunately, that doesn’t have to mean too much extra effort scouring stores on your part. Try these top products on for size!

SheaMoisture’s Mongongo & Hemp Seed Oils High Porosity Moisture-Seal Shampoo

This product is great for hair that is low moisture or especially dry and damaged. It is ultra-moisturizing and won’t strip your strands. Best of all, it seals your cuticles to lock moisture in even after you’ve rinsed!

DevaCurl No-Poo Decadence Zero Lather Ultra Moisturizing Milk Cleanser

When your curls need cleansing with an added moisture element, this is a great cruelty-free option for curls. It gently cleanses while offering the hydration found in nutrients like quinoa protein, grapeseed oil, and more for hair that’s soft and silky, no bubbles needed!

Dominican Magic Nourishing Shampoo

For a cruelty-free clean your curls will love, this shampoo is all magic, and no tricks! It’s made with powerful avocado oil to strengthen while cleansing and every curly’s favorite succulent, aloe vera to add moisture and shine to strands.

Oyin Handmade Honey Hemp Conditioner

Handmade with natural elements known to restore moisture to hair, including that most elusive ingredient—love, this silky product offers the humectant properties of honey, hemp oil, aloe vera gel, and more. And not only can you use this as a traditional rinse-out conditioner, it also pulls double-duty as a leave in!

Curl Junkie Curl Rehab Moisturizing Hair Treatment – Strawberry Ice Cream

This fun and fruity hair conditioner smells like a summery strawberry treat, and that’s not even the best thing about it! Curl Junkie’s rehabilitative treatment is packed with heavy moisturizing properties like healing oils and butters, but unlike its namesake, it manages not to be too sticky or too heavy.

Mixed Chicks Deep Conditioner

A popular choice for curlies, this product is great for adding moisture, but it also tackles other tough issues like post-wash tangles, and unusual dullness. Shine and softness in one? We’re down.

DevaCurl Heaven in Hair Intense Moisture Treatment

With extracts of rosemary and cocoa butter, this moisturizer is great for adding hydration to hair in a cruelty-free way that includes real stimulating herbal power. Best of all, it’s truly a product for ALL curl types! Not that that means you have to share or anything…
