How Does Michelle Obama Keep Her Hair Bouncing and Behaving?

Some time ago, after the Democratic National Convention, I heard Hoda Kotb on the Today show mention that she was sent the products that Michelle Obama uses in her hair. She had noticed that Michelle's hair was free flowing, shiny and beautiful, and wanted her hair to look the same. It has been several months, but there has been a marked improvement in the condition on Hoda's hair, which previously had been stiff, and a bit dull.

I did some research to attempt to find out what hair products Hoda Kotb and Michelle Obama share. My best guess is that Hoda and Michelle are using products from Fekkai salons since soon after Hoda and Kathie Lee did a segment on the products.

Also an interview on Bellasugar revealed the following quote from Michelle Obama's intermittent hairdriesser Johnny Wright. "to keep her hair moisturized, I use the Shea Butter conditioner from Fekkai and Glossing Cream. It really keeps the hair moisturized. And Fekkai Coiff Anti-Frizz creme is excellent for that. It's probably one of my favorite products."

Further research told me something that made me very happy. It turns out that Michelle Obama does not use chemical relaxers in her hair. She is au naturale! A philly.com interview with Denise Davida, also of Fekka Salon reported, "her hair was blown out by Wright and that he did not use chemicals in her hair."

So for all my ladies bickering over the natural versus straight articles I have written, listen up! It is possible to have silky hair without using harsh chemicals.
