How Danielle embraced her menopausal hair change

For most of her life, Danielle Wright (aged 52) believed she had long, straight, thick hair. It spent most of it’s life tied up in braids as she hated it’s appearance. As soon as she hit menopause- this all changed…

“When I hit menopause, my straight locks were no longer, I began to notice kinks appearing, and my hair became unruly and frizzy,” Danielle explained.

Her relationship with her hair worsened. She tried creams and serums that promised to tame the frizz, but nothing really worked. It wasn’t until a few years ago, when her son’s girlfriend recommended switching shampoos, that she saw a glimmer of hope—but even then, her hair barely showed any improvement.

But, everything changed one summer…

Danielle stumbled upon an ad for Merwave. Could this be the solution she had been searching for her whole life? With little left to lose, she ordered the Merwave Starter Kit.

From the first use, her hair began to transform in ways she hadn’t thought possible. "Suddenly, my hair wasn’t just straight with a few kinks; it was full of waves I had never seen before," Danielle stated.

"The dreaded hair wash days were gone, and refresh days became simple—just a quick scrunch with damp hands brought my waves right back to life.” Instead of tying it up right away, she proudly wore her hair down, in awe of the defined waves that stayed intact.

For the first time in years, people were noticing her hair, asking if she had gotten a perm. Her proud response? “No, these waves are all mine.” The woman who once hated her hair now found herself in love with it, telling everyone she knew about Merwave and how it had changed her life.

Danielle found the investment in Merwave products worth every penny, “I see it as a small price to pay for a lifetime of good hair days.” She began to look forward to seeing what each wash would reveal.

It wasn’t an easy road, but embracing her waves in her 50s has given her a renewed sense of confidence. She never imagined that after decades of frustration, she would finally discover her hair’s true potential.

Thanks to Merwave, she’s not just transformed her hair—she’s transformed her entire outlook. Her advice to others struggling with their hair? Take the plunge and give Merwave a go.

Like her, you might just awaken the waves you’ve been waiting for all along.
