There are countless expensive balms, serums and creams for curls and coils, says Neil Moodie, editorial hairstylist and founder of Neil Moodie Studio in Spitalfields. But one affordable alternative has become his favourite: “One of the best products under £15 is the Mixed Chicks Straightening Serum,” he says. “We now also stock it in the Neil Moodie Studio. It has thermal protection, is humidity-resistant and cuts drying time in half.” Even better, Moodie says that this £7.99 serum works on both natural and relaxed hair, and reduces flyaways immediately. “This is all thanks to hydrolysed keratin, silk amino acids, chamomile and rosemary extract,” he says.
