These are Ultra Sheen ads as they ran in Ebony Magazine in 1970. Although "Afro Sheen" was a major Black Hair Care Product in the 1970s, "Ultra Sheen" its sister product, ran separate advertisements. There was a diverse style accepted in the Black Community in the early 1970s, as it was understood that although many Black Americans were breaking away from wearing their hair straight, there were still a group of African Americans that wore their hair permed. Ultra Sheen was marketed to women who still permed their hair, but wanted the "Afro" look.

The very famous "Afro Sheen" ads as featured in the 1970 publications of Ebony Magazine.

Afro Sheen began to hit big in August 1970. For Black Americans, this product symbolized a company that cared about their hair care needs on a personal level. After Afro Sheen premiered, you began to see other companies making "Blow Out Kits" for the Afro or as it was called in 1970 "The Natural". Companies like Duke, Raveen and Posner begin to follow suit.

Afro Sheen made Black Americans feel proud and accepted in the advertisement realm!
