about us

Hello, I am Faith Sonnia Arude and your hair expert. As a teenager, I left my home country Nigeria and came to Germany, but I never forgot my family's traditions of working with natural herbs. I inherited my passion for herbs from my father, who taught me to value them and work with them. Through him, I learned to use natural herbs for my hair, promote growth, and make it more resilient.

In my childhood and teenage years, I was mocked and bullied because of my sparse and unhealthy-looking hair texture, which drove me straight into the arms of chemicals that promised improvement. However, nothing got better because of that - quite the opposite. When I then moved to Germany, it became even harder to find natural hair products that could help me care for my hair. Most of the available products were also packed with unhealthy chemicals that damaged my hair even more. The effects of the low-quality products kept getting worse, and I began to develop inferiority complexes. I loved nothing about myself, from my high forehead and my skin to my entire appearance. I lost my self-confidence as a woman, as a human being, as the person I was.

That is how my journey began - back to myself, to my faith, and to my decision to do something about this suffering - for myself and for my fellow human beings! So in July 2015, I decided to stop using relaxers. (The chemicals that soften hair but destroy its structure and weaken the hair follicles and strands). So I drew a radical line - I wanted a fresh start - I cut off my hair!

One year later, in 2016, I had managed to outgrow the chemicals and begin my natural hair journey. On this journey, I realized that many other people also struggle to retain hair length, fight hair breakage, and are constantly searching for the right products for their hair type to get rid of dry, itchy scalp and dandruff.

That is how my personal search for natural ingredients began, catapulting me directly into the hair care cosmetics and product industry. After many attempts and failures, ups and downs, I discovered the key formula that would help. So over time I shared some of my DIY recipes and handmade products with my family and friends. Through word of mouth, my products spread more and more among friends, acquaintances, and the community. They began to exchange stories, telling one another and me how happy they were with the effects of the products. That is how OTJ Naturals was born.

I realized that this journey, my journey, was worth taking, and that it was good to take it. That is why I decided to take all hair types along on my journey and not limit myself only to Afro hair. I decided to work even harder on developing a formula that works for all hair types - Afro and kinky, curly and frizzy hair, and especially for children.

The vision of OTJ Naturals (Our Tresses Justified) is to reduce the hair struggles we face every day to a minimum. That is why it is important to me to listen to and understand people's needs. Because my biggest goal is to make others happy, and to share and expand my knowledge. OTJ Naturals uses nature as a source of healing for body and mind to help people be bold and confident - BE WHO YOU ARE !!

My wish is to provide people with products that make daily hair problems a thing of the past. That is why we create our "Do it all" products to meet all the different needs of our hair. Our products are made with love and mindfulness because our customers' satisfaction matters to us.
