What our field notes actually track
Every care project starts with a real person and a real week. We write these notes after supporting a client through something specific: a summer of pool days in Durban, bridal hair prep in Joburg or the first month after a big lighten. Each story is a brief record of the constraint, the plan we made, what products or habits we used and what stood up to the challenge.
Our notes capture habits as well as products. We look at habits that made a difference, like wearing a silk wrap through the dry Highveld winter, or adding a Sun Shield Mist reapplication at lunch during a Cape Town summer. Each report tells what went right, what faded or frizzed, and what we would repeat or change next time.
