Every woman deserves good and healthy hair because that’s the crown she never takes off. Every woman deserves confidence in her natural hair, whether #relaxedhair #texlaxedhair, or #naturalhair. I plan to bridge the gap by being part of the movement that would simplify haircare for thousands of women and help them achieve that confidence. So far, I have influenced my sisters, friends, and a few clients I’ve had in the past to do better in their haircare journey. I am also working on building a community of hair-confident queens on social media so be expectant to join us on this journey when we launch. Send me a DM if you’re passionate about this course and want us to collaborate.  Perhaps, you’ll like to benefit from this haircare community when we launch.

From legislative strides to personal anecdotes, explore how we're reshaping narratives and fostering inclusivity. Read now for insights on progress, community, and the luxury of choice. #TexturedHair #Inclusivity #BeautyIndustryEvolution

Some of my earliest memories are of feeling othered as a child. Long before I had the vocabulary to express the feeling, I was well aware that it was happening. When I would scrape my knee, or get a paper cut, the light beige color of the adhesive bandage would stand out on my skin. I would look down at myself and see this rectangular reminder of how I was “different.” I remember the feeling quite distinctly. In 1997, tattoo bandages hit the market and they were the only ones I wanted to wear. The little cartoon figures weren’t pretending to be a skin tone that didn’t match mine. I didn’t have to feel different. But I would’ve been happier with a bandage that matched my own skin. Band-Aid, the brand, was founded in 1921. In 2005, the company launched its first line of inclusive skin tone bandages. It took them 84 years. 🤯 Three years later the line was discontinued due to “lack of interest.” 👀 But that was then. And this is now. More and more, brands are expanding their shade range across products that used to center the default “nude” skin tone (code: white). We’re seeing this in everything from makeup 💄, to pointe shoes 🩰, to underwear 🩲. In the world of bandages and plasters 🩹, companies like TruColour Products (2014), Browndages (2018) and TEINT (2021) are leading the way towards inclusivity. Perhaps you read this post and think that bandages are small indicators of inclusivity (literally and figuratively!). But yet again, small acts of inclusivity can have outsized impacts. Can a bandage protect a child from ever feeling othered? No. But inclusion in commonplace products can go a long way in making children (and adults!) feel seen, included, and validated. 💫 What other brands are bringing inclusive shade ranges to the market? ⬇️✍🏽 ________ #DEI #diversity #equity #inclusion #diversityandinclusion #inclusionmatters #inclusiveleadership Image: TEINT bandages (L to R nude, raw, naked, au naturel, bare)

Immensely proud to have worked on this campaign for #internationalwomensday - If there’s one thing the media has taught us, it’s this - women can never look “good enough”. You may be tall and have good hair, but you’re not thin enough. Maybe you’re considered slim, but you’re still not devoid of stretch marks, cellulite, and stomach folds. You may have good skin, but you are probably not fair enough. The gist? You never feel worthy enough because the models and actors you’re used to seeing on screen have been so unrealistically polished for your consumption. In fact, did you know how hard it is for so many of these models to keep up their “perfect appearances”? Or, how many of them develop deep-seated insecurities from not fitting into these impossible beauty molds? But what if we could alter the narratives, so that every woman feels beautiful and empowered in her own skin?

💡 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆, 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗪𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻 - 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗛𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗰𝘂𝘁. 💈 Who hasn't felt the crippling lack of confidence a bad hair day brings? Especially after 50 years in the beauty business, this salon clearly understands women's real struggles. 😂 Don't get me wrong, a great hairstyle certainly makes me feel good, but wouldn't it be amazing if the beauty industry focused less on selling a one-size-fits-all version of beauty and more on celebrating the diverse strengths women already bring to the table? 👊 Confidence does not come from the "most flattering hairstyle." It comes from smashing goals, nailing presentations, and being valued for our skills and ideas, not the shape of our faces. 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗜 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜𝗳 𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘁𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗻’𝘁 𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝘄𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆, 𝗶𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝗰𝗸 𝘂𝘀 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗯𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝘀 𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗱𝘂𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲. Wouldn't it be great if we celebrated women for their accomplishments, their intelligence, and their strength?  👊 Because let's be honest, women are already rocking it in all areas of life, with or without the "perfect" hairstyle. #beautymyth #femaleperspective 👉 If you want to build confidence from within and be confident even on a #BadHairDay, subscribe to ELEVATE's newsletter, https://lnkd.in/ggiAevTg where Uma and I will announce our masterclass on removing limiting beliefs in July.
