MEET TAYLOR
Hello! I am Taylor, a 24-year-old female living in Pennsylvania with my husband, dog, and cat. I just recently graduated from nursing school and enjoy helping others, but something I love to do for myself is care for my hair. On a day off just hanging out in the house, I love to do hair masks and scalp treatments. In a career dedicated to helping others, is it important for my physical and mental health to do a little self-care!
Outside of haircare, I have a passion for studying medicine and reading. I love reading nursing textbooks because I always like to learn new things that will help me in my career. I also love reading mystery novels. Sitting in my living room early in the morning with a hair mask in, a cup of coffee, and reading a book is a delightful way to start my morning when I have a free day.

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE THE TEXTURE OF YOUR HAIR?
My hair is very fine but I do have a lot of hair. This causes trouble with tangling as my hair just wraps around itself into knots. My hair is a couple inches away from my hips which is my hair goal!
HOW DID YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR HAIR BEFORE THE INTRODUCTION OF THE INNATE LIFE PRODUCTS?
Before I found The Innate Life, my hair was a disaster! I always wanted long hair, it would just never grow and I could not figure out why. I would get so mad that it wouldn't grow, so I never got trims. My hair was constantly knotted and dry – not to mention all of the split ends. The only products I used were ones from the drugstore that were full of sulfates, silicones, parabens, and other nasty chemicals. I also used box dye on my hair fairly regularly.
WHAT MADE YOU SEEK OUT THE INNATE LIFE PRODUCTS? HOW DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THE COMPANY?
I heard about The Innate Life because I was sick of my hair looking and feeling the way that it did. I started researching how to take care of hair and how to help it grow, and I saw a couple of reviews mentioning The Innate Life. I decided to place an order for the Shampoo + Conditioner (discontinued). I loved that set so much, a couple weeks later I placed an order for the Rose Hair Elixir. A couple weeks after that, I placed an order for the Scalp Treatment and Herbal Hair Mask. That was about 2 years ago and I have been using the products ever since.
WHAT SETS THE INNATE LIFE APART FROM OTHER COMPANIES IN THE BEAUTY INDUSTRY?
The Innate Life differs from other beauty companies because I feel that they actually care about their customers.
They actually take the time to look at reviews and their customers' hair progress. If I have ever had a question or concern, I can reach out and they actually answer! Besides their care for the customers, you can tell they really care about their products. Changing the packaging to all black so the products last longer and are not compromised by the sun was an amazing idea.

WHAT IS YOUR HAIRCARE ROUTINE NOW?
My current hair care routine is that I wash my hair every other day. Sometimes I wait 3 days if I really want my natural oils to come out.
DURING WASH
PRE-WASH
Once a week I will do a Scalp Treatment and Herbal Hair Mask. I always use The Innate Life Scalp Treatment. I then either use The Innate Life Herbal Hair Mask (I love adding a couple of drops of the Rose Hair Elixir to this) or coconut oil. I leave the Scalp Treatment and Herbal Hair Mask in for at least 3 hours. Before bed, I sleep with my hair in a loose braid and I put the Rose Hair Elixir on my hands while I braid it.
DURING WASH
My constant shampoo and conditioner I use is The Innate Life Shampoo + Conditioner for Thin/Normal Hair (discontinued).
POST-WASH
POST-WASH
Once I am out of the shower, I spray my hair with a leave-in. I use a tangle teaser brush to get knots out, and put my hair up in a microfiber hair towel. On damp and dry hair, I use the Rose Hair Elixir. Occasionally I will also use another hair oil but I would be lying if I said I don't favor the Rose Hair Elixir.
HOW DID YOU SEE YOUR HAIR CHANGE AFTER USING THE INNATE LIFE PRODUCTS?
Before using The Innate Life, my hair was dry, dull, constantly tangled, and would never grow. Now, my hair is just a couple inches away from my hair goal! Not only that – it is healthy and soft. The baby hairs around my temple have grown in so much, which is amazing because I was always self-conscious about my hairline. The Rose Hair Elixir makes my hair so shiny as well. I never dreamed my hair could be this healthy.
WHICH IS YOUR FAVOURITE PRODUCT AND WHY?
I refuse to choose between the Scalp Treatment and Herbal Hair Mask. They both make my hair so soft and healthy and I just love using them together.
WHO WOULD YOU RECOMMEND THESE PRODUCTS TO?
I would recommend these products to anyone! I think the products/ingredients are well suited for any hair type. I would specifically recommend these products to anyone that wants to improve the state of their hair.
HOW DOES THE INNATE LIFE FIT INTO A LIFESTYLE COMMITTED TO HEALTH + WELLNESS?
The Innate Life fits into a healthy lifestyle because the ingredients are just so clean. It is amazing being able to look at the ingredient list on my hair products and being able to actually read and recognize everything in it. Speaking on my own personal health and wellness, I was recently diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder and my hair was starting to feel extra dry and started to split. I started using my Innate Life products even more and my hair is back on track.
