Defining My Curls Series Youtube Thumbnail-2

In the latest episode of our Defining My Curls series, we’ll be using the Luster’s You Be-Natural products for curl definition. Luster’s has been around for a long, long, LONG time in the black community as a hair care staple. While some turn their nose up to brands who are releasing products catering to the ever emerging demand of naturalistas, we are glad that brands are hearing the call and answering. As a resource for women with natural hair, Naturally Glam tries to keep up with all the new products that hit the market and share them with the Naturally Glam Fam – that’s YOU.

What They Say

You Be-Natural is the natural hair care line from black hair care leader Luster Products, Inc. The brand promotes incredibly healthy hair as the foundation for coils, curls, waves and more. The You Be-Natural products are derived from botanical ingredients, focusing on moisturizing and protecting the hair from the inside out, all while enhancing the inherent beauty and shine of natural hair. The full line includes everything you need for intensive therapy, easy day-to-day maintenance, and styling for natural hair worn curly or straight, as well as for those transitioning out of chemical relaxers. The You Be-Natural line is relatively new but brings with it the Luster Products, Inc. fifty-eight year history of making black hair beautiful.

What We Say

Several products came with the product bundle that we received, along with a booklet that explained each product and had a product recommendation chart. This chart offered guidance as to which products were formulated for the different curl pattern, and included a picture along with the curl pattern description. This would be very helpful for customers trying to determine which products in the line would work best for their curls. The products had a pleasant, clean scent. The ingredients included natural oils, but also synthetic ingredients as well. While we used the styling products for curl definition, they all have instructions for using the products for other styles, like twist-outs. Who doesn’t like options? We love them.

Here’s a brief demonstration of how we used the products from start to finish for a curl defining session. The Tangle Me Knot Shampoo was cleansing, yet gentle, and we were able to run our fingers through our hair without a problem. The Mayonnaise Conditioner coated the hair well and we were also able to detangle with it in our hair. However, as the product began to dry, it was a little more difficult to detangle, so we just added more water to keep the slip going. The Curl Shaper Custard recommended for our curl type was very moisturizing and defining, and provided some elongation but didn’t have a strong, or hard, hold. All and all, we would use the products again for curl definition as well as other set styles.
