As you guys know, I'm a natural gal. I have curly hair, and I loveeee every bit of my 'fro. I'm forever searching for cool platforms that cater to the natural community, especially black owned! When I stumbled upon Curlfluence on Instagram, I was like BINGO! I immediately followed, and noticed that they were looking for influencers. Normally I shy away from certain opportunities, thinking I don't have a big enough following, but I was just like hey, what the heck? I filled out the application and decided that this was for me. A few weeks later, I received the most exciting email. It read: "You have been hand selected to become one of our very first Curlfluencers!" I was sooooo excited. I immediately took a screenshot and sent it to my mama! Yes, it was a huge deal for me.
For those of you who aren't familiar, Curlfluence is a platform that connects bomb influencers with companies that make products for people of color. As a Curlfuencer, I get the opportunity to test and review different products that are useful and made for our community. I am thrilled to be apart of this awesome company! Within days of accepting the offer, I got my first box of products for the #ClarifyMeCrazy campaign: Shea Moisture's African Black Soap Deep Cleansing Shampoo and Balancing Conditioner. I tried 'em out, so keep on reading for the review.
