A. Kairi
A. Kairi is a natural beauty care and crafting enthusiast that has operated a natural beauty care products business since 2004. She has held dozens of natural beauty care workshops in private venues and at Mid-Continent public libraries throughout the state of Missouri. These workshops focused on teaching participants to make their own natural beauty care items. Her goal with writing is to not only inform but educate her readers so they can make their own natural beauty care items and craft projects; this is accomplished by careful explanations of why the ingredients in a recipe or guide work the way that they do. Readers can then apply this knowledge to projects of their own design.
