Are you considering transitioning to natural? Transitioning involves returning to your natural hair texture from a chemically straightened or heat-damaged state without doing the big chop. Many people transition over a period of weeks to months depending on what time frame is best for them. During the process of transitioning, you will cut the ends of your hair gradually until you have no more relaxed ends and your hair is completely natural.

Transitioning to natural can be very challenging if you don’t have the proper products and a good hair care regimen in place to help you. The good news is that as you find great natural hair products, build your hair care regimen, and begin to learn more about your hair, your transition will become easier.

During your transition, you will be dealing with two different textures. The line where your new growth meets your relaxed ends is called the line of demarcation, and it will be very fragile. To prevent breakage, you need to handle your hair with care. Just about anything you do to your hair – from detangling and shampooing to styling – can lead to breakage if you are not careful.

For a smooth transition to natural hair, you will need to have the best products in your regimen. Here are the top four Mielle Organics hair care products that will help you get through your transition with ease.

1. Babassu Oil Conditioning Sulfate-Free Shampoo

Deep conditioning is essential for transitioning to natural — this step in your regimen should not be overlooked or missed! Natural hair requires moisture to help prevent breakage, and deep conditioning will help your hair maintain moisture.

While transitioning, it is best to deep condition on a regular basis. Our suggestion is to deep condition your hair weekly, and your deep conditioner should be applied directly after shampooing to achieve the best results. To get the most out of your deep conditioning session, you can also use heat such as a hooded dryer or steamer — this will help the conditioner penetrate your hair strands and allow maximum moisture.

Mielle’s Babassu Oil Mint Deep Conditioner infuses hair with moisture and protein to restore your hair. It is a deep penetrating conditioner made with complex amino acids from wheat, soy, and other natural ingredients that will help restore moisture to damaged and dry hair, and it is enriched with fatty acids and natural oils that will help to reduce frizz. This organic hair conditioner contains just the right amount of protein and moisture to help you maintain the moisture and protein balance in your hair.

3. Mielle Organics Ultra Moisturizing Leave-In Conditioner

You always need to have a good organic leave-in conditioner in your product stash. After each deep conditioning session, you should apply your leave-in conditioner. This helps to coat your hair and provide added moisture. An organic leave-in conditioner also helps with setting your hairstyles, and it can even serve as a heat protectant. Leave in conditioner for curls helps define and gives your hair added body, shine, and manageability.

The Mielle Organics Organic White Peony Ultra Moisturizing Leave-In Conditioner is the perfect lightweight leave-in conditioner, packed with organic ingredients that are designed to give your hair moisture and protection. This organic leave-in conditioner will not only seal in moisture, but it will also help you tame frizz and flyaways. It is also ideal for daily use and protection against heat damage.

4. Mielle Organics Brazilian Curly Cocktail Mousse

Having a great styling product that serves multiple purposes will make your transition to natural much easier. Whether you want to do a perm rod set, twist out, or braid out, having a mousse in your stash of organic hair care products will come in handy.

Our Brazilian Curly Cocktail Mousse will give you soft, defined, and frizz-free curls. It contains a blend of organic and Brazilian oils including babassu, buriti buriti, copaiba, and muru muru. The super combo of Brazilian oils absorbs into the hair shaft, locking in moisture and also giving your hair the ultimate definition and moisture. Your perm rods, Flexi rods, twist outs, and braid outs will turn out very moisturized and well-defined. This product is also great paired with the Brazilian Curl Cream for healthy curl definition.

During your transitioning journey, you will experience good days and not-so-good days. The key is to have patience and continue to learn your hair and what works best. For example, if a twist out doesn't work for you, then try a braid out. Hang in there — healthy hair takes time and patience. Happy transitioning!

For the longest time, the power of cool in haircare has been relegated to the cool rinse at the hair salon, or the cold shot button on your blow dryer — which, by the way, is an underestimated feature that helps to smooth down the hair’s cuticles to create maximum shine and help your style last longer.
