As someone who exercises regularly (5x a week) with high-intensity workouts, sweat is a big part of my life. Trust me I know how I look and smell when I finish my routine.

I love, love, love when I get to discover and learn something new about curly hair or something that can benefit its health. This is why when I heard about this I was super excited and had to share it with you guys.
