What is The Pure avidity Approach?
The Pure Avidity Approach to curls creates routines to bridge the gap between your lifestyle and what your curls need to thrive!
Hair is a collective of hair strands reacting to the environment. To really understand what is happening with your hair we have to analyze what is happening with your hair strands. This is done by analyzing five natural features of your hair to create a profile of your hair’s unique characteristic. This profile becomes a compass to interpret how your hair strand react to the world around them, taking a lot of the guess work out of caring for your hair!
