My multicultural daughter and son have been using the starting line up. This summer with basketball and baseball schedules along with swimming, we are in LOVE with the shampoos. Having the option to use the micellar for sweaty heads with more frequency without drying works WONDERS! The conditioner is AMAZING! My daughter was breaking all her hair off because it was dry...she now is actually excited to wash her hair and the fact that the comb can get through her hair without breaking and how lovely her coils look fantastic.

My daughter is an athlete and still a girly gurl. Her hair was dry and breaking from sweat. Wish I had taken a before and after picture because after one shampoo and condition you wouldn't have believed the difference. She was ready to place her next order after just one wash!

My son [whos bald father told him to use body soap on his hair GASP] was convinced to give it a try and what used to feel like gummy hair was soft and conditioned. LOVE LOVE LOVE

Since they had so much success, I decided to give my post menopausal hair a shampoo and condition to see if I could get some life back into mine...SAME.

This is a great combo! I recently moved from a very humid area to a relatively dry area, and am really enjoying working the shampoo and conditioner into my routiene as I adjust to a different environment. My scalp really likes the micellar shampoo - it feels super clean and my hair is not dried out when I use it. My hair mids and ends really benefit from using the cool down conditioner after a mask, to really lock in the moisture or the protein, whichever I'm using on that day. When I hop out of the shower, I smooth in some oil, and I'm good to go! I definitely recommend it.

I love this product. I’ve used it for my little girls and myself. Definitely notice A LOT less breakages. I use not just the shampoo but also the conditioner. This line was talked about in a chat on instagram about finding a more natural chemical free product. I took a chance and I’m glad I did. Will be buying more. I will have to post a picture next time.

My hair and I LOVE this set. The products smell wonderful. The shampoo has a rich lather and makes my hair feel clean, and the conditioner makes my hair so soft and easy to detangle. I also love the natural ingredients. I will definitely recommend this to my friends.

The holiday season is swiftly approaching and before we get lost in calendars filled with office parties, networking events, and so many dinners let's take a weekend to pause and thrive in the beauty of self- care. How?

Day 1 — Friday, 10.18

It's simple, plan an activity/activities (solo or with a group) that get your heart rate up and the sweat flowing. Go for a run, brisk walk, yoga, bike ride, whatever you enjoy. The key is to work up a little sweat (i.e. Make your body happy)!

Day 2 — Saturday, 10.19

Then we cool it down. Remember self-care is what brings you joy. It could be getting a mani-pedi, massage, or enjoying a good book and snacks at home. The key is to pause and enjoy.

Day 3 — Sunday, 10.20

After all that we need to get clean—so it's time for Wash Day! Cleanse your scalp and have your hair basking in the beauty that this weekend was yours.

Bonus Fun — Giveaways!

Follow us and tag pics and video of your weekend and share them with #iamstrikingandstrong #selfcareweekend2024 5 lucky winners Striking + Strong Wash Day Starting Line Up Kits.

Put you first and block off your calendar to dedicate Oct. 18-20, 2024 for self-care.

"Girl, don't sweat out your hair!" You've heard that so many times growing up. Keeping it cute was the alternate to getting sweaty and even today we're told that being strong means we're not also soft or delicate. Truth is, this world prefers one-dimensional women. Yet our curls are far from flat, so we unapologetically choose to live and embrace lives that are multifaceted. You can work + workout. You can be cute + sweat it out. You can care for others + care for yourself. If anyone says otherwise, we've got your back. We are Striking + Strong, and so are you.

Self-care doesn't always have to be solo and some secrets are meant to be shared. Have a friend or loved one who's striking + strong? We'd love to meet them! Tag them on social or share our products and details with them!
