Having a background in cosmetic science, I decided to create my own products. I knew how to put a formula together, it was all about doing the research.
Being of Ghanaian descent on my father's side, I was aware of shea butter before it became popular in hair & skin care. I am also a mix of Guyanese, Irish & Native American descent, so my "crown " consists of curly, coily & fine textures, coarse & thick in some areas, fine in others. It was all about finding similar natural ingredients that could deliver the moisture, nutrients & protection my hair needed, while allowing me to create the styles I desired.
My time as a Biology major at Hampton University provided me with the experience conducting research. That experience came in handy during my quest to create the perfect product(s).
I researched natural ingredients, worked & reworked formulations, and what I came up with were five introductory products that achieved exactly what I was looking for... moisturized, healthy hair that was easy to manage.
Hair Brew was born out of a need to improve the quality of my hair. It has grown into a brand of personal care products for men, women & children, keeping quality as its focus.
I am not only the cosmetic chemist & owner of Hair Brew, I am also a loyal customer. Starting with five products, the line has grown to fourteen products & also includes sets and starter kits. In my spare time, I still research ingredients that benefit hair, skin & beards. Since the personal care industry is ever evolving, I remain in the know by reading up on industry news. I also appreciate receiving customer feedback. This lets me know what people love, what needs improvement and what products people are looking for.
