Hair story …

2007 was the start of my natural hair journey.  My sister was natural and I was intrigued, and inspired, and so we did the big chop.  I'm absolutely proud of my decision and I will never look back.    
 
Her advice to those contemplating wearing their hair natural …

Don't straddle the fence on going natural.  You will have to really educate yourself and learn about the right products and techniques to use on your hair.  Put your ego away and embrace your natural beauty inside and out.   

Inspiration behind getting into the  Scentsy Business …

I have always been a addict for candles and smell goods in the home and office space.   

As a wife and a mother of two, I can always get a wooosah moment with a nice bath and some aromatheraputic scents.  

When I found Scentsy I was so interested in how the "wickless technology" worked.  And at that the time I was looking for a business opportunity to grab extra income for my family.

The foundation of Scentsy is built on the family, and I was sold on the mission statement…  

"To bring value to the world by providing an industry-leading, family-friendly business opportunity selling creative, artistic, high-quality products that Warm the Heart, Enliven the Senses, and Inspire the Soul."
 
On Scentsy products …
 
The Scentsy candle warmer has no wick, uses no flame, and produces no soot. Instead of a flame, it uses a light bulb to slowly melt scented wax bars to maximize fragrance time.

The warmers are made from high-quality porcelain or ceramic and come in variety of styles and sizes to fit any décor. Sizes include Full-Size, Mid-Size, and Plug-In.  

There are over 80 different ones including my favorites like: Camu Camu, Sunkissed Citrus, Blueberry Cheesecake, Newborn Nursery, Simply Irresistible, My Dear Watson, Satin Sheets, & more!

Considering how expensive and wasteful (not to mention dangerous) candles can be, Scentsy is absolutely worth it.

Would she recommend Scentsy as an alternative to scented candles? …

With over 80 fragrances to choose from, dozens of unique warmers, and the peace of mind -- your family and pets are safe...it's an easy YES!
