I do not know when exactly I started to love my curly hair. What I am sure of is that my curls started to be beautiful again –after a period of ugliness– when I started loving myself well and carefully changed the way I ate and the products I used for my skin and hair, when I started listening to my body, my emotions and my soul and began respecting myself as a human being and a woman. And that was about four years ago...

Since then, I’ve done a lot of personal work in the field of self-awareness and spiritual transformation, and it shows in my whole body and my energy. I have light within, I shine, and so do my curls.

I started asking myself why should I keep using products that contained ingredients I would never eat, and the answer was “for no reason”. So I stopped using them and now I use products for my skin, teeth and hair that are 100% natural or almost, with very few chemicals.

That has been my transition: from chemical products to natural ones, rather than anything else, because I never dyed my hair nor I often had it straightened. 

The result is a happy hair that shines.
