2022 Best In Black Hair Awards: Everyday Essentials

No matter how you choose to wear your hair, these are the products that any and every hair care stash should include.
The Best Everyday Hair Products For Black Hair – 2022
By Samantha Callender & Blake Newby · Updated February 10, 2022

One of our four 2022 Best in Black Hair Hairstylist of the Year winners—whose clients include Lupita Nyong’o, Willow Smith and Amandla Stenberg, just to name a few—is Vernon François, a curl expert for the ages. Entrusted with every type of texture by the brightest stars, he lets his creations tell a rich story. “It’s a collaborative process between me and my cli- ent, what we are inspired by, and harmonizing with elements that are important to the hair- style’s success,” he says. François adds that no matter your hair type, everyone should be conditioning. “Kinks, coils, curls and waves that are dry or damaged should aim for a deep-conditioning treatment once a week,” he advises. “There are lots of factors at play, so always try out what works best for you.”
