The Iyalode

As eating a balanced diet is essential to the health of our body, so is the need to feed our hair, for it to look healthy and lustrous.

In Africa however, we tend to overlook this because we were raised to not give too much care to our hair or even understand it as we should.

Things are however beginning to change, with this generation. More information is out there on the internet, if you care to learn. And this is why in recent times, we find it easy to accomplish hair goals.

Having beautiful hair starts from keeping the scalp clean and healthy without harming the hair or further loading it with toxins.

Many shampoos available in our markets (Nigeria) are chemical based and as such, dry out the natural oils in our scalp and hair follicles. And this dryness is a major cause of what we know as ‘dandruff’ which can be very uncomfortable and itchy.

Kykinkz shampoo is a combination of naturally occuring cleansing materials (plants, trees and seeds) and as such pose no risk of stripping the hair of its natural nutrients which the hair needs for it to be healthy.

Kykinkz shampoo also has essential oils infused, to help get rid of itchy and scaly scalp. There is nothing more annoying about your hair than having to scratch your scalp in odd places or to experience scaling/ shedding. This has led many to chop their hair and maintain low cut, with a false assumption that heat causes dry scalp. A few have told me that their stylist told them there is no remedy to their hair condition. I’m here to say this is false.

Growing up, we trusted hair stylists to understand our hair, and guide us accordingly. Unfortunately even they had limited knowledge except on hair styles to make you look good. But what is the essence of a nice hair which flakes?

And though the narrative is begining to change- stylists now understand hair better, and give informed advise – the fact still remains that no one can understand your hair better than you.

Embark on this journey with Kykinkz and maybe you’ll get to understand your hair better and love it like never before.

African hair is the prettiest! (If managed well).
