The low down on afro hair subscription boxes
Many agree that this is the best time to be a black woman. The best time to be a natural haired black woman at that. Ten years ago, afro hair subscription boxes were unheard of. We struggled to find hair care products made with natural and organic products for our curly locks in the usual black hair shops. Let alone to walk into a mainstream supermarket or pharmacy to find ‘our’ products. Subscription boxes are indeed a Godsend. They allow the subscriber to get a variety of afro hair samples delivered straight to their door. These Afro Hair Subscription Boxes are at a reasonable price with different products being sent on usually a quarterly or monthly basis.
Here are the best UK black owned afro hair subscription boxes on the market.
Bourn Beautiful Naturals UK Box
This brand was born in 2016. Finding no products on the market to properly care for her dry, sensitive skin and coily hair, the founder, Kadian Pow created Bourn Beautiful Naturals. Providing all 7 items in their hair care line, the Bourn Beautiful Hair Kit includes:
I’m sold – you can shop here.
We provide a set box which costs just £37 exclusively here on Hair Popp for 250ml full sizes.
If you want to add styling products to your new wash day kit. Try these two items which are new to the marketplace:
