thanks to Celia Shatzman at Forbes for this amazing feature on our latest launch of volumizing products: big hit shampoo + conditioner and rising star volumizing finishing spray! "As you age, you're losing moisture and lipids—there's oxidative stress that's happened to the hair. You either have dry scalp or your hair is more brittle, so using traditional volume products is going to have the opposite effect, especially for more mature hair where you still want volume. When we looked at developing Big Hit, we challenged ourselves to have technology that would create that same effect, but something that was on the hair itself as opposed to lifting the cuticles to do that. Having that technology with lightweight moisture gives you a foundation you can then build on.” - Chelsea Riggs read more on Forbes: bit.ly/3zELqZc

a true hair-story 👑 🧡 just under half of the states in the US don’t protect against race-based hair discrimination in the workplace. the crown act would change that. we recognize that our reach extends far beyond your shower shelves, so to bring awareness to this legislation inspired by The CROWN Act, we held a panel discussion to hear perspectives + hair-stories from different women in different industries, one of whom was new york assemblywoman Michaelle Solages (she/her) ✨ 📣 a massive thank you to our other panelists: professional hairstylist + stylist collective member Yene Damtew (she/her) + amika HR business partner Malika Maule (she/her) and our Director of DEI + Social Impact + esteemed moderator, Gianne D. (she/her)! head to the link below to sign the petition to get #thecrownact passed in all 50 states of the US! sign here: https://lnkd.in/dpdbAxd
