Love love love the holidays!
And what better way to show a curly girl in your life you love and see her than by giving her a meaningful and much-needed hair care gift.
Let’s be 100, curly girl products are pricey! And not to mention more and more options by the minute. Don’t get me wrong I love the options, hope it’s not just for a “moment in time” but who has the time or money to spend trying all of these amazing products. From a fellow curly girl; here are a few of my top unique curly girl picks your loved one will adore.
1. MULBERRY SILK NECK PILLOW & EYE MASK SET
The first item is a super cute and much-needed silk travel pillow for the curly girl traveler. It’s not made for curly hair specifically but it might as well be. When I saw this I said, I have to have it! This is much needed for every curly girl regardless if you travel once a month or once a year. Airplanes are hectic enough, you dont need to add on worrying about your hair too. It is perfect for neck support and most importantly it is made from Mulberry Silk which is perfect for curls. This is important because your hair ends up resting on the pillow. This little thing could cause fuzzy hair, dryness, or even damage to your curls. Save the curls and get the gift. Bonus it comes with an eye mask! Travel well girly.
2. Gisou – Honey Infused Hair Perfume

A delicate hair perfume, enriched with Mirsalehi honey, formulated to refresh and scent the hair with Gisou’s signature honey-infused fragrance. This item also helps with dryness, frizz or lack of shine. Other ingredients of this product are: Mirsalehi Honey: Maintains a natural moisture balance for strong, shiny, healthy hair. Free of sulfates SLS and SLES, parabens, formaldehydes, formaldehyde-releasing agents, phthalates, mineral oil, retinyl palmitate, oxybenzone, coal tar, hydroquinone, triclosan, and triclocarban. This product is also cruelty-free and comes in recyclable packaging. This delicate perfume refreshes hair with an irresistible honey scent, leaving a trail of floral notes from the Mirsalehi bee garden
3. FULLY PAID 1 YEAR GYM MEMBERSHIP
As a curly girl, I work out not just for my health but for my hair too. Movement creates circulation and sweat which is great for your hair follicles when trying to produce sebum. Sebum is a natural oil that comes from your scalp and is needed to aid in hair growth and retention. Sebum is also the main reason your hair looks shine, healthy, oily, dry or fragile. This gift would be perfect for the gym-obsessed curly girl… Trust me, it’s going to wow her.
4. CURLREV DETANGLING & STYLING TOOL
This tool is new to the market but I thought it was interesting. Essentially it is a finger coiling tool and detangler all in one. If your curly girl finger curls her hair often you might have heard by now how annoying it is because it takes so long. Well, this tool cuts your time down and makes perfect curls at the same time. Disclaimer: I believe this item is one size so depending on the size of your finger it may or may not go on perfectly. Now how I would use this tool is; I would use it to make perfect curls, dry them and then pick or mess them up with a few head shakes to get that effortless sex hair look.
5. SATIN HAIR TIE
If you want to get her a gift that will be used constantly, this is it. I think this item speaks for itself but just in case you’re new to this, satin hair ties are a MUST for curly hair. Satin or silk hair ties are used for curly hair because the material causes the hair to slide off the band easily and not raps around the hair band and brake like with traditional hair ties. Hair ties are always coming up missing and in need of replacing anyway. Either way, this is a really nice stocking stuffer and will be greatly appreciated and used daily!
6. MELANIN HAIR CARE ENTIRE COLLECTION
At some point, I feel every curly girl should try Melanin Hair Care. It was created by a natural with type 4abc hair texture I believe and her name is Natural85 on Youtube. I mention this product because it works great for my hair I am a 3abc4a hair type. I’m not 100% sure what my hair type is as you can see but it is around those ranges and the product still worked! I thought it would not at first because the styling product was so heavy. And when I tell you it worked, it worked so well my boyfriend asked me what he should start doing for HIS hair care routine. I have been a whole cosmetologist since we met and he has never asked me about hair products for his hair. Now, he is impressed! It really brings out the beauty in your hair.. just with more bounce.
7. CURLY GIRL SUBSCRIPTION BOX
This is a monthly subscription box of haircare products for people with curly, kinky and coily natural hair. A subscription box that makes it convenient for you to try different curly hair products and accessories every month. No need to visit your beauty supply story every month looking for the right product.
- Different haircare products every month.
- Wash day routine conscious products
- 3-4 Full Sized Curly Hair Care Products and accessories
- Curly Girl Friendly Products
8. AMLA AND BHRINGRAJ MASQUE
This is for the holistic natural. This natural knows how to read labels and sticks to her toxin-free hair care lifestyle. This Alma & Bhringraj mask will be a repurchase for her once she gives it a go! You will be the forever be the person who introduced her to her favorite hair mask. The ingredients are sourced with the holistic natural in mind with an abundance of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants curly hair needs. This mask strengthens, adds shine, and hydrates.
9. CURLY GIRL SALON – FULLY PAID BOOKED APPOINTMENT
You could book her a “Spa” hair day! Call up her favorite curly hair salon or find a curly hair salon in her area. Book a wash, hot oil treatment, and style. This would be a really sweet treat. This gift will involve a little bit more work on your part to find out her favorite salon or research a 5-star curly hair salon in your area. When trying to find a new curly hair salon check for star ratings on google, read reviews about the company, call and ask do they do natural African American curly hair, and if so for how long have then been doing this. You can also ask how experienced is the stylist and if you could book with the head stylist or owner and how much will that be. More than likely this will be an up charge but this is necessary when trying out a new salon. It saves my mind from worrying because I know I am in good hands!
10. CHI IONIC LIGHTWEIGHT BLOW DRYER
This I thought would be PERFECT for the curly girl who has had the same blow-drier since 1999 lol. She deserved an upgrade. This blow-dryer is nice for curly girls because it is so lightweight. We spend a lot of time with this thing. If you deep condition with heat or use the cool air setting to dry your hair instead of air drying; this is a must. It is super simple to use and has every feature needed and none of the ones you don’t. It is a medium to small hair dryer with black and blue buttons. It comes with standard attachments and has a good-length cord. Plus it is just so cute.
11. MICROFIBER TOWEL
You can’t beat a good size microfiber towel. This set comes with a large full-body towel and one small hair wrap towel. I love that you get two different sizes just in case you don’t want to use the smaller towel that day. I also. like the color and seamless look of these towels. They have a nice look that will go with most bathrooms’ aesthetics.
12. HAIR & FACIAL STEAMER
Now, I’m usually not into the 2-in-1 anything but this is actually a really good investment. If there was anything labeled as a self-care item this would be one of them. Now a little about this gem. If you are into facials you can use the facial attachment when applying your face wash or even masks. But the most important feature of this machine is the hair steaming attachment. I love this product and use it every week for deeper conditioning sessions. If she is not deep conditioning with heat through a hair dryer; then she should be steaming with a steamer. I chose this one because it is super easy to use and has super easy attachments to put together. The features include an on/off button and an ozone button. That’s it. Pro tip: always turn on the ozone button for better quality steam.
13. EXTRA LARGE FASHION HAIR CLIP
A unique hair accessory for sure. Simple and chic jumbo hair claw. This is another nice stocking stuffer for the simple and stylish natural who enjoys the little things. But in this case a little thing thats going to make a big impression. I personally enjoy the black & brown claws and the white & black claws, as shown here. This is also great if she has a lot of hair!
14. CURLY HAIR EMERGENCY TRAVEL KIT
Have a curly girl who is always on the go? She should always have her essentials with her. Load up your favorite conditioners, co-washes, stylers & oils in an easy-to-find emergency curly hair travel kit. I would love this for refreshing curls, adding shine to dull hair, puffing, etc… Best part it is customizable by the seller above “)
15. SATIN HAIR SCRUNCHIES
Just like hair ties you are going to need scrunchies. Sometimes you are going to need something big and plush to hold the curls. Maybe for when you work out, at night time, or running errands, etc… Having scrunchies, exceptional silk scrunchies handy is a lifesaver. Curly hair is fragile and easily tangles. Slik scrunchies should cut down on that and should be in every curly draw.
16. CURLY HAIR GROWTH VITAMINS
I have tried a few hair vitamins and these by far are the best! They are pricy, so this is why gifting it would be great, to get her started. After the first bottle, she will see a difference. These vitamins stop shedding, make the hair strand stronger, aid in faster hair growth by retaining length, and for some women create new hair follicles.
17. CUSTOMIZED ENGRAVED GLASS WATER BOTTLE
Floral-2 Liter Water Bottle with Storage Sleeve, Reusable Straw, EcoFriendly Sports Bottle, Big Gym Jug, BPA Free, Holiday & Christmas Gift. This hydrin water bottle with a sleeve carries more than just water for you. This half-gallon (2.2 L) water bottle comes with a multifunctional sleeve that keeps your drink cold longer, while also allowing you to carry all the essentials with convenience and style. Each one comes with a 5mm neoprene protective sleeve where you can place your phone, car keys, and other small, important stuff you need for a bag-free day outside.
