3 years of doing wonders for my hair and skin.

Letters to Shinkafa

“For the past three years, I have been using Shinkafa’s products. I went with this line exclusively from 2017 and have never looked back. It has done wonders for my hair and skin.”

HAIR: I wanted to go natural with my hair from using the regular relaxer for most of life. I was skeptical. When, I then used this, I could not believe that something that processes your hair makes it natural too. Just amazing! My hair is bouncy, the hair loss is reversing and I can easily style my hair between afro or the permed relaxed look.

I use the kit every three weeks. For daily maintenance, I use the leave-in conditioner and mix it with the hair polish. This combo makes my hair so soft and bouncy.

Every two weeks, I use the hair masque to rebuild my hair loss from all the years of the regular relaxer. I was losing hair all over. No more. The reconstructing hair masque makes my hair stronger and healthier. Sometimes, instead of shampooing, I will use this hair masque, finish with the anti-frizz conditioner. After rinsing I put the leave-in conditioner and hair polish and blow dry my hair. Then again daily, I use this combo on my dry hair instead of any other hair cream, because, my hair gets really dry. This has taken care of this problem.

I color my hair every two weeks. I have my colorist mix in the reconstructing hair masque to my color to minimize any adverse effects of my color and this has worked wonderfully.

I wash my hair every week with the charcoal detangling shampoo. I condition immediately with the anti frizz conditioner.

BODY: I use the body wash every day. I use the charcoal one when I want the detox. I was a soap user all my life. My skin was always dry and I tried just about every expensive cream on the market. I did not know you had to start from the beginning.

I started with the body wash three years ago. I added the charcoal one last year. These have made such a difference in the dryness conditions I had. I use the body cream SPF (I travel a lot to the tropics) and body oil.

I used to tone my skin with some creams that had hydroquinone. I have lived with the damage that ingredient had done with uneven skin pigments, blotchy unhealthy and really awful looking skin that I was hiding under loads of makeup. I still like to tone my skin, so I now use the Shinkafa toning cream and toning oil.

The result is just wonderful. I like my skin now.

At night I use the blemish cream.I use the face masque every weekend. Before I put on makeup, I use the face mousse.I have my husband use the face masque every other day for a tighter more youthful look and he loves it. I used to mix Shinkafa’s products into my old creams and it was a bad idea because I was not getting the full benefit of what this product line does.
