Meet Serla from Albania! Serla shares her journey on returning natural as she ditches the straighteners and diffusers and instead heals her 'very prone to breakage' curls.
The Journey
What inspired you to return natural?
Hello, I am Serla and I live in Albania. I am a Medicine student in my second year of study. Currently 20 years old, I decided to embrace my natural hair after years of damage using a diffuser and straighteners. My hair was extremely dry with no shape, it was also very prone to breakage. I had a very difficult time detangling my hair, it would take a lot of effort and about 20 minutes. I started searching on the internet for the best products and guess whaaat.. Flora and Curl reviews and ingredients made my expectations for my loose, damaged waves rise. And the products didn’t disappoint me at all. I was simply amazed. The texture was fascinating and I could never imagine my hair would someday look like that.
Since then, I never gave up using these products... I didn’t even try to use any other brand after Flora and Curl, because my hair undoubtedly loves each product and is used to it. My hair now is super healthy, like it has never been before. My dry, yellow ends now are the same colour as my scalp thanks to these amazing products. It looks like I had my hair dyed but noo... it's just the Flora and Curl effect.
What were the challenges (if any) along the way of your healthy hair journey?
I started using drugstore brands but saw no visible effect in my hair. Starting with 1B hair type I reached 2B-2C using these amazing products. The journey was long but worth the while since I finally found my go-to products. Now my hair is very healthy and all my friends keep asking me about my routine.
What made you buy Flora & Curl products? How did you hear about us?
Searching over the internet for curly girl friendly products I read a lot of reviews, but the fact that Flora and Curl are all organic made me give it a try.
How did you see your hair change after using Flora & Curl products?
After just one use the change was fascinating... My curls are healthy!
Which Flora & Curl product is your favourite and why?
Ellie found it hard finding the right products to help with her transition, but now she has her go-to's at the ready and is learning more about her natural curls!
13 year old Tiffany (at the time) used excessive heat on her hair because she wanted to fit in. Years later, Tiffany finds an interest in studying all about curls and has seen her tight ringlets blossom over the years. She says she now appreciates her hair as she shares her story with us!
Good for my fine hair as doesn't way it down. Gives decent root volume and works well after the Sweet Hibiscus Curl Activating Lotion. I also scrunch in a little gel after the foam to get a cast and a bit more hold.
I absolutely love the smell of the Flora & Curl products I am so glad they do not smell like coconut or vanilla like most curly hair products. I purchased Flora & Curl sweet hibiscus twist and braid cream because I sometime need a bit more of a hold then the curl activating lotion. I love both products! I use the twist and braid cream the same way I use the curl activating lotion and it just gives me that extra hold that last longer. I love all the Flora & Curl products and will never put anything else in my hair!
