She continued: “The first thing I used was Sea Breeze [a skin and scalp astringent]. I needed some relief!
“I found a little bottle, like the ones they put the dye in with the nozzle on top, and put the Sea Breeze in it.
“It helped, but it dries your hair out. It gets brittle.
“So I had to figure out how to get moisture down to my braids and clean my scalp.
“That’s what the TPH haircare line is about. It’s about scalp care — and serving looks. TPH was born out of my ‘Master Cleanse’ hair product I made for myself. For me, hair is nothing if you don’t have a clean scalp.”
Henson stressed that her products — which are available in Target — are not just for “natural hair.”
She added: “But I don’t want people to think that this is a line that is just targeted at natural hair. This line is also for wigs. It’s for installs, braids, locs, straight hair, curly hair — hair needs moisture.”
