The first half of 2020 has really been something!!! COVID 19 caught us unawares, we’ve sheltered in place, socially distanced, worn masks or face coverings, worn disposable gloves when shopping, gathered in small groups of 6 or 10, been hyper sensitive to cleanliness and been super mindful about washing and sanitizing our hands.
The black lives matter movement and protests in countries across the globe, have awaken a renewed drive to engage in difficult conversations. We discuss the need for change in communities and address the disparities and inequities in all facets of life.
The movement has challenged social, economical, educational, and governmental norms. And we see the seedlings of a new normal that is inclusive, equitable and fair.
As we transcend this time of change and self-reflection. Discover new ways of doing business, meeting colleagues, friends and family, how we learn and educate most facets of life are different. We thought there is one thing that we can do that hasn’t changed from 2019.
In 2019 we highlighted the 10 Best Curly Hair Products and for 2020 we’re doing it again with a little twist. We’re shining a spotlight on the best black-owned beauty businesses and exceptional hairstylists in the US & UK that we can support in 2020 and beyond.
The clean beauty brands we’ve highlighted have clean ingredient beauty products for face, skin, body and hair. Whilst the hair stylists are the best in the business and style naturally curly hair into amazing braids, cornrows and updo’s. They also color, trim, treat and cut curls.
As we take steps towards some kind of “new normal” and equitable economics, there’s no better time to make a commitment to support and spend our dollars euro, pounds and yen with these great brands and hair stylists.
