What happened
Facing the challenges menopause brought to her hair, including thinning and loss of curl vitality, the tester felt her once effortless curls had become a time-consuming struggle. She had tried numerous products and methods without success, ultimately resigning herself to wearing her hair tied up in an attempt to hide problematic areas.
The turning point came when she volunteered for Gustav Fouche’s ‘Love Seat’ treatment, a complimentary service offered monthly to four women seeking a fresh perspective on their hair during midlife. Gustav’s warm approach and detailed consultation led to a cut and colour tailored specifically to her needs, using a dry cutting technique specially suited for curly hair.
Why it feels good
The dry cutting method shaped the curls according to their natural fall, avoiding the disappointment of unexpected length and enhancing their health and bounce. The colouring strategy focused on refreshing roots only, reducing damage and prolonging the vibrancy of the hair while effectively covering grey strands.
Most importantly, the transformation reignited the tester’s confidence. She found herself leaving behind the habit of tying up her hair and enjoyed seeing a version of herself she had lost touch with throughout menopausal changes. This renewed self-image underlines how haircare is deeply intertwined with personal wellbeing.
