6. How did you come to be in this line of work?
Strands & Company was
born from my own personal hair journey. Managing my ethnically-mixed, textured
hair has been an interesting road to travel - some parts of my hair are wavy,
some parts straight, some parts tightly coiled, some parts frizzy. My hair has
been chemically relaxed, frequently blow dried, and everything in-between.
After noticing my hair was
thinning several years ago, I took a variety of actions to try and stop the
issue. I stopped using chemical relaxers on my hair, I flat ironed and blow
dried less. Less hair was falling out after making these changes, yet my hair
was still coarse, dry and easy to break. Apparently, I had stopped my hair from
abandoning ship... but it just didn't feel healthy.
So, I started seeking out
products designed to moisturize and pamper textured or curly hair, with the
added bonus of less harsh chemicals. It wasn't easy to find what I was looking
for but after finding and trying a few natural products, I noticed an even
bigger change in my hair - it was softer, easier to manage and most
importantly, it was growing back!
I felt sure there must a
store out there, focused on natural hair care brands for textured hair. While I
found individual textured hair brands, and some online stores tailored to
natural products, what was missing was a shop that was dedicated to both -
natural products for textured hair. So I started Strands & Company, to
bring a store like that to other people who had needs like mine.
7. How long have you been
doing this?
I started working on the
shop at the start of this year (2013).
