Pur Bella Naturals

It’s not just your hair.

When we hit our 40s and 50s, there can be a whole shift happening at once. Our hair changes. Our skin changes. Our bodies change. Sometimes even our style and the things that used to make us feel like ourselves don’t hit the same anymore.

If we don’t stay aware of those changes, they can creep up on us until one day we look in the mirror and think, “I know that’s me…but I don’t quite feel like me.”

That’s why I believe in learning what works for us now. Not chasing 30. Not fighting every change. Just staying connected to ourselves enough to adjust, evolve, and still feel current in this season.

If that’s you… Welcome Fren I’m glad you’ve found me. 💋
Hi, I’m Shan. I help women in their 40s and 50s love their hair, feel beautiful, feel current, and recognize themselves in the mirror again. 💕

Respectfully, I’ve taught enough. 😂 Y’all got it from here.💁🏽‍♀️

CHEAT CODE BELOW 👇🏾

Here’s how I use Hello Curls Mousse + Curly Tings Gel based on what I actually want my curls to DO:

Want volume + soft, touchable curls?
✨ Hello Curls Mousse alone → soft to medium hold.

Want more definition + stronger hold?
✨ Curly Tings Gel FIRST + Hello Curls Mousse → medium to firm hold.

Want MOISTURE + SHINE + firm hold?
✨ Curly Tings + Hello Curls + a dollop of Influance Gel → that moisturized look, shine AND the stronger hold when I want a little extra.

And here’s the cheat code inside the cheat code:

💦 Put your products on WET hair.

Not towel-dried. Not halfway air-dried while you answered a text. 😂 WET.

Sometimes you don’t need another product. You just need to know what the ones you have are supposed to DO and how to layer them for the result you want.

Volume, definition or HOLD… which girl are you? 👀

Hi! Im Shan and I’m here to help women 40 & 50+ fall back in love with the woman they see in the mirror. Hair is just one way we get there. 🤎

➡️ For you……I’ve been watching something beautiful happen. ❤️

Women in their 40s and 50s are releasing the wigs.

They’re letting go of the braids.

They’re learning to embrace the hair they’ve spent years trying to hide.

They’re choosing themselves, even when it feels uncomfortable.

I’ve seen tears shed in my salon over the past few months.

Not because of a haircut…

But because, for the first time in a long time, they looked in the mirror and recognized themselves again.

I’ve watched women walk into my salon carrying years of doubt, comparison, and frustration.

And I’ve watched those same women walk out standing a little taller, smiling a little bigger, and feeling a little freer than when they walked in.

I don’t believe this movement is just about natural hair.

I believe it’s about women finally deciding they don’t have to hide anymore.

If that’s you…

I’m so proud of you.

Welcome home. ❤️

❤️ Stop postponing yourself.
Happy Weekending Fren!

Training Chronicles: Episode 4 💪🏾

Twice in one day. 😅

Today wasn’t easy, and JR definitely wasn’t taking it easy on me. Let’s just say… I had plenty to say in my head. 😂

But here’s what I can’t argue with:
• My stamina has increased.
• My knees are getting stronger.
• I knocked out 100 push-ups today. 🤯

A few weeks ago, I would’ve never believed I’d be saying that.

I’m learning that getting stronger isn’t about loving every workout. It’s about showing up anyway.

Mad respect to my trainer, he sholl run his mouth tho.🤦🏽‍♀️ Buttttt He pushes me past the point where I’d normally quit, and that’s exactly where the growth happens.

At this rate… Ironman might need to save me a spot. 😂🏊🏾‍♀️🚴🏾‍♀️🏃🏾‍♀️

There comes a moment when you stop hiding behind the style and decide to meet the real you again. I’m coming across this in the salon A-LOT. lately. If you’re taking out years of braids, wigs, sew-ins, or extensions and learning to love your natural hair, don’t expect overnight results. Hair that has been tucked away needs time, consistency, moisture, and patience.

The biggest change isn’t always your curls, it’s the way you speak to yourself and feel about you, while they’re growing and trying to become whole again.❤️

Give yourself the same grace you’d give your best friend. 🤎 And sprinkle some patience in there too. Hope this helped! ✌🏽
