For a one stop shop, please visit Beauty For U, it is a black-owned beauty supply in Arlington and Grand Prairie. All of the products I have bought (except SheaMoisture and Giovanni) were purchased at their store. They don't just sell natural products, but also weave, wigs and anything else that you would get from a BSS. Please show our people some love instead of helping the Asian population capitalize on OUR hair!!!

Yes the list is long, but a lot of the products are things that I need to use up and discontinue use. I mean they all work well for me, it's just not economical to have 3-4 products that do the same thing!
