Introducing a "Topper Gel" to be used with other botanical based, water soluble gels for styling the Hydrate & Define, a.k.a. Wash and Go hairstyle.
ENBBA stands for Embrace Natural Beauty By Abena. ENBBA Naturals is a line of water-soluble hair care products specifically designed to hydrate and define tight curls. While products for ENBBA Naturals have been in development and testing at Embrace Natural Beauty Salon since 2020, one styling gel has emerged as a winner to address some of the concerns presented by my clientele. Maintaining curl definition during high humid climates was the highest priority.
Ingredients: Water, Glycerin, Xanthan Gum, Dehydroxanthan Gum Powder, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, *Sea Kelp, Sodium PCA, *Green Tea Leaf, *Aloe Vera Powder, Pro-Vitamin B5, Tremella Hyaluronic Acid Powder

This is the best natural hair styling product I have ever tried and I have been natural for over ten years I can’t think of one product that has come close to this in any way shape or form up until I found enbba naturals I was still spending money on products that never worked I will happily spend every single penny on this gel it is worth it trust me I am high porosity extremely dry breakage prone thin natural 4a/b ( for visual reference) surface texture is matte and honestly feels bumpy and rough but enbba naturals makes my hair look and feel moisturized shiny frizz free defined elongated and magical!!!! I can finally go more than 3 days of a wash and go, which has never happened for me before!!!! Thank you Abena and thank you God for sending Abena to us and restoring our hair and confidence ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Congratulations on the perfect gel Abena! I've watched you for years and just didn't think I would ever achieve such great wash n goes that I see on your channel. I'm a wash n go girlie, but I knew mine weren't at the best potential. So I ordered your gel, and WOW. I tried the combination you suggested and finally I had a strong hold wash n go that wasn't so darn sticky from the UFD. My wash n goes have always been so sticky that I. hated touching my hair. But I have finally figured out the right ratio of UFD to use to get great results. And your new gel as a topper is perfection. I ordered the small bottle, but I'm going to order the larger (even though expensive). And I pray you don't stop making it...please 🙏🏽...thank you so much for your commitment to helping us wash and go ladies! ❤

I’ve cut off all the straight ends which now looks like a TWA…I want my hair back. Can’t wait for my ENBBA Naturals

Abena, you know you did right by the natural hair community with this gel! I tried it recently and it's lovely! I have tight coils and they have never been so defined and moisturized! I used to think the only way to get lasting hold is with a hard gel. Not so. Looking forward to making another purchase soon. You've created a winner! Much success!

@@EmbraceNaturalBeauty All true, Abena, and you're welcome. Today, I've been testing it with several gels, and it's worked with each one. 🙂 I remember praying a year or so ago, with a bit of frustration, that there HAS to exist a product somewhere in the world that can define tight curls, reduce frizz and provide hold without being hard. ('We can put a man on the moon, but we can't...' I was THAT kind of frustrated.) I'm late to the Enbba party, and only purchased it because I recall how much you had helped me in my curl journey years ago with your tutorials. I was making a "support purchase" but had no idea how much I would appreciate this product! So, hang in there, dream big, and above all, tell the Lord what you want, ask Him what He wants FOR your business, and don't be afraid to walk into big doors of opportunity when they open!❤You've demonstrated a lot of integrity over the years in this natural hair space... it will all work out for you.

@EmbraceNaturalBeauty 5 ай бұрын

Wow! I truly appreciate your support. It means so much to me that I was able to pour into you for your curl journey years ago. Now, look at God using YOU to pour into ME at this time. You mentioned praying over a year ago for a product to define tight curls, reduce frizz and provide hold. Please know that this has been my agenda for many years. The ENBBA gel began production in 2020 but has been a dream of mine for well over 10 years. The Lord has led you to me at the appointed time, and you have been a tremendous blessing to me by what you have shared. I’m grateful that I can reread your message as a reminder of what was deposited in my spirit so long ago. And I will stay the course. We know that if He brings you to it, HE will bring you through it. I appreciate you and praise God for you. Bless your heart ❤️ 🙏🏽

I just followed your video and applied as you did and I did not add any extra water. I love the hold, not hard or crunchy. My kinda WNG. It is soft, defined, elongated and shiny. Can’t wait see how it fairs in this Florida heat. Also I didn’t use much, about a nickel to a quarter size depending on how large my section was. My fav, your instructions to smooth and rake in an horizontal position. I parted with my fingers in a vertical way, when I tell you this was a game changer!!!! 👏🏾 👏🏾 Thank you. Thank you.

@EmbraceNaturalBeauty Жыл бұрын

Hi, as a licensed cosmetologist who works with fine hair I assure you that you do not need oil on your hair to combat hygral fatigue during styling with a gel. And if you are using oil prior to cleansing your hair you are giving your shampoo more work to do. You would benefit from working with a Tight Curl Specialist to help you understand what your hair needs in order to be well maintained. Have you heard of Black Girl Curls?
