Danika
Danika is a devoted friend who always helps those in need, but she also has a slight harsh side to her. She was the one who pushed Goh and Horace to battle each other in the Sea Mauville Trial Mission. She is a Vanir, meaning that she can shift into a Wolf form. Her wolf form is stronger, faster, and has better senses than her human form.
She has a strong Se function, which drives her to seek out immediate sensory stimulation. This often manifests itself as a desire to be physically involved, but it can also cause her to be reluctant to take risks.
This home based salon in Gippsland is run by two curly specialists with years of experience. They offer a thorough consultation and curly hair advice that supports how you want to live with your curls.
