2. Growing up as a black woman, hair has always
been very important to me. I have always been
taught that my natural hair is not welcome in
most professional settings, an that it must
always be done/ look like other non POC hair. I
want to create a brand that helps other black
girls love their natural hair in the way I was
taught to.

11. BRAND POSITION
For people who have natural hair, I provide hair
care, and products that work for us because I
know how hard it is to find out what works and
what doesn’t. I always get called the hair girl due
to me changing my hair color and style so much.

You know how most natural hair care companies only cater to type 2-3 hair?
Or how most products contain alcohol which dries your hair out? Well over

Methodology:
Forbes valued more than 200 global brands by looking at three years of earnings and allocating a percentage of those earnings based on the role brands play in each industry (e.g., high for luxury goods and beverages, low for airlines and oil companies). We applied the average price-to-earnings multiple over the past three years to these earnings to arrive at the final brand value.
