MEET ALEXANDRA
I am a graduate student studying mental health counseling. I love yoga & mindfulness, cooking, and playing the upright bass. Tea is an important daily ritual for me. I am a bee keeper, enjoy gardening, and I have 6 chickens. My two cats, Violet and Plum, are very special to me!
I am most happy doing something creative, whether it be sewing, playing music, experimenting in the kitchen, or doing a craft. I also love witchy things, like Tarot and Astrology. I also run my own counseling business called Little Plum.
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE THE TEXTURE OF YOUR HAIR?
My hair has got some personality! It can be straight sometimes, and it has some waves other times. I like to change up the length, and occasionally add some subtle highlights, so it has a little damage. Texture-wise, my hair is fine, but there is a LOT of it.
HOW DID YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR HAIR BEFORE THE INTRODUCTION OF THE INNATE LIFE PRODUCTS?
Prior to The Innate Life Products, I was using salon products. I always felt that they stripped my hair, and I was never super happy with them.
WHAT MADE YOU SEEK OUT THE INNATE LIFE PRODUCTS? HOW DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THE COMPANY?
One of my favorite YouTubers, Holistic Habits, mentioned the products in one of her videos, and I decided to give them a try. I was really happy to learn that the brand was a woman-owned business.
WHAT SETS THE INNATE LIFE APART FROM OTHER COMPANIES IN THE BEAUTY INDUSTRY?
I think The Innate Life is unique to other companies in the beauty industry because the products are all-natural and consciously made. I love that The Innate Life is a cruelty-free brand.
WHAT IS YOUR HAIRCARE ROUTINE NOW?
I typically wash and condition my hair every 3rd day. After my hair is dry, I use the Rose Hair Elixir to tame any frizz, and it helps my waves look shiny and healthy. I apply a little more to touch up throughout the week! It smells so wonderful, and my husband loves the scent. I also like to use the Problematic Scalp Treatment every two weeks. When I use the treatment, it feels like a full pampering session. It smells so herbal and calming. I really want to try the Leave-in Conditioner next! It sounds like it would be a good product for my hair type.
HOW DID YOU SEE YOUR HAIR CHANGE AFTER USING THE INNATE LIFE PRODUCTS?
The Scalp Treatment makes a big difference for me. My scalp is prone to getting flaky, largely due to an autoimmune condition. However, when I use the Problematic Scalp Treatment it calms the irritation and leaves my scalp happy! I also really like the Rose Hair Elixir for taming frizz. I live in a humid place, and it helps so much – especially in the summertime!
WHICH IS YOUR FAVOURITE PRODUCT AND WHY?
I think the Scalp Treatment is my favorite product because it is such a luxurious product to use, and it helps my scalp irritation so much!
WHO WOULD YOU RECOMMEND THESE PRODUCTS TO?
I would recommend these products to anyone looking for cruelty-free natural hair care products that smell delicious!
HOW DOES THE INNATE LIFE FIT INTO A LIFESTYLE COMMITTED TO HEALTH + WELLNESS?
The Innate Life fits into a lifestyle committed to health and wellness because they use all-natural ingredients. What you put on your body is just as important as what you put in your body, and The Innate Life recognizes that.
