WRITTEN ON BEHALF OF CEE: "I was recently allowed to try out the new Au Natural Range of hair care from Dark & Lovely, South Africa. The Dark & Lovely brand have been in my life as far back as I can recall, even as a kid my mom would use this brand on my hair. As an adult though, friends and family know that I am an extreme natural hair advocate. I have not worn, weaves or braids or anything along those lines for years. And I am proud to be natural and proud to encourage women internationally to wear and accept their own beautiful traits. Unfortunately I find especially here in South Africa there is a negative physiological attachment and pressure to wear “fake” hair or rather to look a certain way. When I was asked to take part in trying out the Au Natural range I decided to jump on board, as maintaining ones natural hair, can be quite the task. It needs to be taken care of and had fun with, which is something I tend to do a lot of. I have worn every kind of hair style under the sun and that means that I need moisturized and strong hair. Since I have been using the Au Natural range my hair has gone from strength to strength, no questions asked. I have seen the shine return to my hair, strangely enough this means a slight red tint in summer. Since I was a kid my hair has never been “dark” but rather had a very obvious red/burnt orange tint to it when the sunlight hits it, a strange but awesome phenomenon. Not only is my hair shining bright like a diamond but its THICK and STRONG! These are two things I have always had serious issues with and am so glad I have found something that stops the breakage issues. This is a range that I will happily keep investing in, and as a traveller I find the products easy to pop into my suitcase of carryon bag ? I do suggest that you use the products all in conjunction with each other. The shampoo and conditioner smell so amazing one is almost tempted to drink them, please don’t do this, no matter how tempted. And be sure to nourish your hair daily with the hair butter! Yes, it’s like butter but for your hair, and no you can’t eat it, put the spoon down! As I currently have two shaved sides and a long Mohawk hairstyle, I have been able to CLOSELY monitor the growth and the strength that using this product has had on my hair and let me tell you, this product does not lie. Thank you so much Dark & Lovely! You’re amazing! I can’t wait to try out more of your products, after all, have you seen some of my hairstyles below? " Cee

Since the 8th of Sept, I have seriously been super obsessed with these products. They are simply amazing, smell fantastic,really keep not just my hair but also my daughter's hair moisturized and looking and feeling fresh. The Knot-out conditioner is my absolute favourite. I swear detangling has become the easiest thing and I love it.

The name of my blog is Curlyheads and Dimples...the kids(3 of them) and I has the curlyheads and my husband the dimples. With that said, I got to try the Au Naturale range out on the whole family...yay!!
Most if the time I do wash n go's and the Afro Moisturizing butter works perfectly for this style. I just love how it keeps my hair moisturized and my curls defined. Even though the consistency is very thick, it doesn't weigh my hair down.
Azaria's hair is much longer than mine and tangles quite easily. The shampoo gives her a good clean and the Knot-Out conditioner does an amazing job with detailing her tresses. The Plaiting Pudding cream keeps her hair moisturized as well as tamed when doing cornrows and twists for school.
Jaymee hair is kept short on the sides with a few curls on top (for school) and we use the Afro Moisturizing Butter to keep his curls intact. After washing his hair, I apply the butter and make finger coils which gets "unraveled" into smaller curls.
Jody's hair is super long and is always a challenge. We keep his hair in twists and he wears an afro over weekends. The plaiting butter is perfect for the twists and keeps it looking healthy.
What I love most about the products is the fresh, fruity fragrance. The smell lasts long which is especially helpful with my boys that run around whole day. This is a product that I will gladly recommend to my friends and also my fellow natural girls.
Well done Dark & Lovely South Africa!!

#ProudToBeNatural Firstly, thank you for choosing me to be part of this great campaign. I enjoyed and loved using these products and they all lived up to my expectations! Dark and Lovely is a brand I used when I was younger and used it to relax my hair. I am so happy to be trying out ‘’the natural range’’, as I am growing hair all natural and I am glad Dark and Lovely decided to create products for natural hair. This is one brand black people grew up putting their full trust in. Now I get to call it to my favourite hair care brand. Sometimes I struggle with dry, itchy scalp. Using the shampoo, conditioner and moisturiser helped to make my scalp moist and hair thick and without any knots. I like the fact that the product does not leave my hair greasy and shinny however thick and nourished. Below are the steps to have perfect natural hair. 1. Washed hair with the DNL moisture-replenishing shampoo. 2. After rinsing, applied the knot-out conditioner, combed my hair and rinsed my hair after 15min. 3. I hardly use a hair dryer on my hair, so I let it dry for 30 to 45 and then apply the Afro moisturizing Butter. Lastly I comb my hair. 4. For a more edgy and funky look, I use the plaiting pudding cream (no combing) leave it for that Afro dread look. I would recommend the Dark And Lovely products to anyone that has hair issues similar to mine. i.e. dry-itchy scalp and knots. Since natural hair is a bit difficult to maintain, I would suggest that one should do this process twice a week and moisturising every other day and it will leave your hair feeling perfectly healthy. It is important to use all 4 products to get maximum results at all times.

I am totally impressed with the Dark and Lovely Au Naturale Range.I have been looking for good products for my natural hair,as my hair tends to break,but the Dark and Lovely Au Naturale Range has restored my hair strength.
My hair does not break that much ever since I started using the products,and also its much softer that before.I also don't have to apply the products everyday,they moisturizer stays longer than I expected.My favorite product is the Dark and Lovely Au Naturale Plaiting Pudding Cream,I use it before I plait my hair,totally good for preventing tangle.
Also,I love the scent,it does not irritate my nostrils,its amazing.I totally recommend the products.
