Who is Divine Curls?
Divine Curls was founded by me, Davonne. I’m a Munich transplant, originally hailing from Boston (USA). After arriving in Germany, I was faced with the common challenge many culturally diverse women face: What in the world am I going to do with my hair here?!
After a botched relaxer and several failed attempts with different hair stylists, I decided I needed a drastic change – I needed to kick my creamy crack habit. I got off “the crack” February 2012 and I haven’t looked back! I will admit – I wasn’t completely opened to the idea at first. I was practically forced to go natural because no one in Germany knew how to care for my hair like I was used to back home. Plus, I got tired of trying to explain what I wanted done to my hair with my basic-level German.
In the meantime, as a busy mom, I’m always looking for easy-to-do hairstyles that are still stylish and preserve my natural hair. And since many hair products for natural haired girls are not widely available in Germany, I started making my own hair creams, gels, shampoos, deep conditioners, hair rinses, etc.
That’s when I decided that I needed to change the game in Germany. Why shouldn’t curly-haired women have the same product availability?
