Sitting in a Dominican hair salon, you’ll hear all kinds of tips, tricks, and tales about the best care for your hair (and maybe some chisme from the vecina sitting in the next chair). From rinsing your locks with beer to deep conditioning treatments, the hair care culture is filled with almost endless stories about what works best for beautiful, bouncy, and shiny curls.
One such hair care innovator is Lulu Cordero, the creator of Bomba Curls, a line that specializes in products made with kinky, curly, coily, and wavy textures in mind. What makes her products unique is that the story started with her love of coffee and a deep pride in her Dominican roots.
After years of hair pulling, Lulu started suffering from severe traction alopecia which can cause hair loss, soreness, itchiness and other uncomfortable symptoms. She realized she needed to take action in order to soothe her edges and scalp and also support healthy growth. She took cues from her ancestors, as well as her studies as a pre-med student, and created an elixir combining coffee seeds and oil. In a short time, her hair flourished, her edges were laid and the demand for her oils started. As a result, her Bomba Curls business was born.
Bomba Curls is a 100% clean and green hair care line that uses beauty secrets and techniques that are unique to the Dominican Republic. The products are nontoxic, biodegradable, sustainable and certified cruelty free.
Take a coffee break and peruse some of their products to see which one may work for you.
