Curly hair of all types, be it; Afro, Coily, Curly or Wavy are notably beautiful, but they also require particular care. To keep these certain hair types looking their best, they often need additional moisture, nourishment, and attention. We've carefully selected critical components that satisfy these needs because here at LOVE, MELLIE we understand the difficulties that our curlfriends; persons with curly, tightly curled hair and/or afro hair encounter. We'll explore one of our main ingredients, mango butter, and how it benefits your hair in this blog post.
Understanding Mango Butter
Mango Butter, also known as Mangifera Indica Seed Butter is derived from the seed kernel of the mango fruit and is known for its exceptional moisturising properties. Mango Butter is rich in essential fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants making it a versatile ingredient that can work wonders on hair, particularly hair that is prone to dryness and frizz, such as Curly, Coily, Wavy and Kinky hair.
Intense Moisture: The structure of curly and afro hair can make it difficult for natural oils to pass down the hair shaft, which is why these curl patterns can frequently suffer from dryness. Mango butter offers high moisture to maintain the curls are properly hydrated because of its deep-penetrating capabilities; if you’re looking for a moisture injection into your curls our Moisturising Mango Seed Hair Lotion, might just be the holy grail you’re looking for: crafted to condition, soften, and enhance the natural curl pattern, while simultaneously delivering deep hydration to the scalp and hair.
For our curlfriends the require extra moisture; we’ve got that covered to with our Moisturising Mango Seed Whipped Butter: A silky, lightweight whipped butter that serves as an all-encompassing moisturiser, from the scalp to the ends of your hair, so light you’ll never know it’s on!

Enhancing Natural Curls: The gorgeous, natural curl pattern of Afro and Curly hair is one of its most sought-after attributes.
