We often hear stories about our current customers becoming Funky Junkies on accident! That’s right… On accident. Once they try some of our Good Funky Stuff, they never turn back! For this month’s Funky Junky Feature, we’ll be chatting it up with Kenvi of natruallykenvi.com, who fell in love with one of our products and hasn’t looked back since. Keep reading to find out which one!
Because very naturalista has a story, aside from hearing about how awesome our products work for your hair, it greatly inspires us to see and read about your many triumphs in the natural hair world and your personal lives! Kenvi, of course, has her own unique story about embracing her natural beauty.
“My natural hair journey has been all over the place! I wasn’t brave enough for a big chop back then, so I transitioned in 2011,” she said. “From there, I became known for my beautiful twists outs and slicked ponytails. Three big chops later, I decided to keep my TWA. It has become my signature and there is no turning back for me. Although I’ve had long hair most of my life… Short hair is ME!”
It’s amazing to find a signature style and stick with it. Most people spend their whole lives working to find something about their appearance that makes a statement about their personality… Or find products that perfectly fit that style. She found that in our Thirsty Curls Leave In Curl Revitalizer, which ultimately helps her achieve the sleek look gaining many admirers on Instagram.
“As a native Houstonian, I discovered the Uncle Funky’s Daughter brand back when it was a storefront in the Rice Village area, but didn’t try any products back then,” she said. “Later, I received a sample of the Thirsty Curls in an event goodie bag and fell in love! Thirsty Curls keeps my short cut looking juicy and defined, and is now one of my go-to leave ins.”
Kenvi also provides tips and advice for other budding beauty gurus out there, by way of her blog and her most recent project, the All Things Beauty podcast. There, she and her co-host discuss topics such as makeup, styling, and trends sweeping the internet. She’s also a free-lance makeup artist during her free-time away from her corporate day job in finance.
“On the podcast, we discuss “all things beauty” literally! I get to share my expertise with fellow beauty lovers all over the world. To know that people tune every week to hear my opinion about beauty topics is amazing!”
Her motive, especially with naturallykenvi.com, is to be inspired and spread it, providing the “ultimate curlfriends experience” through posts that will uplift and inspire outside those of herself. Read more about Kenvi on her site and don’t forget to follow her on social media!
