- Green Beauty
We think it’s safe to say every natural needs and would love the Green Beauty channel. Even if you’re not science-oriented, Nikky explains the science behind many natural hair treatments and practices in the easiest of ways, using animated images and clips to visualise experiments. Her soothing voice in her voiceovers add to removing any apprehension one might have about scientific talk. Think of watching this channel as being in a class and learning natural hair concepts, without feeling like a student or overwhelmed with technicalities.
Another thing to love about this channel is that Nikky does regular health check-ins, so you see how her routine and regimen works for her.
- WestAfricanBaby
Aboyowa’s channel showcases her long kinky hair style. She’s been natural since 2012 and, as such, has over a decade of experience caring for her natural hair. She creates creative style tutorials with her hair, product reviews, and offers hair care tips.
