We Found 10 Budget-Friendly Products for Curly Hair That Actually Work

Curly hair is often envied but sometimes cursed by those who have it. It takes time and dedication to find the perfect potion for any particular set of curls, but it's entirely possible—especially when the following curly hair products are enlisted. It doesn't hurt, either, that they're all available at your local drugstore. Whether you have tight ringlets or super parched and processed locks that have fallen on the limp side, it's possible to breath new life into your hair to make it more manageable and deeply nourished. Everyone will be wondering what your secret is. The real secret, however, may be that none of the answers break the bank! Opening image: @devacurl

BEST FOR: Transforming those dry curls into smooth, silky (never crunchy) locks.  

USERS SAID: "I ordered this thinking that it was just going to be for refreshing a wash 'n go hairstyle. When I got it, on a whim I decided just to spritz my hair with some water and spray it on, my hair is now dry and literally feels like silk! This is already an absolute favorite!"


Carol's Daughter Black Vanilla Moisture and Shine Sulfate-Free Shampoo

BEST FOR: Instantly balancing out the amount of moisture you have in your hair (and it's color-safe!).

Yes to Carrots Nourishing Shampoo

BEST FOR: Consider Yes to Carrots your affordable answer to a soothing dandruff treatment. 

USERS SAID:  "This shampoo makes my hair oh so very soft. It is just like the 'big brand' names that make all sorts of commercials with women throwing their hair about....but they are better!" 


SheaMoisture Coconut Hibiscus Curl Enhancing Smoothie

BEST FOR: Do you have unruly, tangly tresses? This "smoothie" will straighten (and silken) you right out.

USERS SAID: "Wow. I have tried every other product, expensive, inexpensive, and mid-range, to calm my coarse, frizzy, tangled mess of curls. They all leave them limp, crusty, frizzy, or shapeless. But this conditioner has now been my tried and true for years."


Curls Blueberry Bliss Control Jelly

HELPFUL TIP: Use on wet hair for a soft hold or on dry hold for a strong hold.

BEST FOR: Is your hair super, super, super curly? You'll never have felt as good or in control of your curls as when you try this Coconut SuperCream on for size.
