WHY JOIN STRANDS?

Do you want to start your own hair extensions business, but don’t know where to begin?

 

Many entrepreneurs in the hair extensions industry (who had to start from scratch) will tell you running a successful business often requires a ton of expensive trial-and-error.

 

Much of the problem is the industry is so secretive. And when you do happen to find information, all of it seems conflicting and confusing - which often makes starting and running your own business even harder.

 

For too long, the barriers to entry in the hair extensions industry have prevented many of Black women from truly capitalizing on the very sector we helped build.

 

You might have thought about starting your own hair extensions business, but felt held back by:

 

  • The amount of money it typically takes to start a business like this.

  • All the overwhelming and conflicting information out there.

  • The secretive nature of the industry.

  • Having to learn all the ins and outs surrounding hair types, vendors/suppliers, marketing and sales.

  •  The idea that the market is too saturated for your business to be successful.
