BUY BLACK, IT MATTERS!
At CurlMix, we're proud to be a Black-owned and Black-operated business, dedicated to empowering women to wear their hair the way it naturally grows, and supporting Black communities. As we celebrate Black History Month, we want to share why it's important to buy Black-owned products and how your support can make a difference.
Why is it crucial to support Black-owned businesses? Here are a few reasons:
1.) Supporting Black Economic Empowerment
Buying from black-owned businesses helps to close the Black wealth gap and provides economic empowerment to Black communities. When you support these businesses, you are directly investing in their success and helping them grow, which can have a positive impact on their families and communities.
2.) Commitment to Customers
Many Black-owned businesses have a strong sense of community and see their customers as more than just transactions, they see them as highly valued members of the community. This often leads to a better understanding of customer needs and better customer service.
CurlMix prides itself on taking excellent care of our beloved community (we call them CurlMixers!) We do this by offering a free Masterclass, where students receive one-on-one attention and guidance from our large community and a Curl Coach, who will teach and guide students, and answer any questions they may have.
We offer full returns via store credit, without needing to mail back anything. This means if you don’t like what you purchased, you can simply reach out to customer service, and we will refund you in store credit, which you can use to purchase other products from us. Beyond Masterclass, you can contact our customer service for any reason, and we will get back to you. Whether it’s a specific question on how to use a product, or about shipping issues, we are happy to hear from you and help!
CurlMix is unlike any other beauty brand, we are owned by our customers and community. We have raised over 4.5 million dollars from our community through equity crowdfunding - the majority being from Black women.
Equity crowdfunding allows anyone to invest in private companies and startups, not just accredited investors. This opens up investment opportunities to a wider range of people and helps to democratize access to capital for startups.
This means purchasing from us is helping to grow the wealth of thousands of real Black women, NOT giant corporations. Hear from our small investor’s own words why they invested:
3.) Creating Jobs
Black-owned businesses are often small and locally-owned, meaning they have a direct impact on the local economy by creating jobs and supporting local suppliers. By purchasing from these businesses, you are contributing to the local economy and helping to create job opportunities in Black communities.
We are located in the Southside of Chicago, and employ dozens of members of the community. The majority of our staff are Black women.
Purchasing from CurlMix allows us to retain and grow our staff, and offer a competitive wage and full benefits.
4.) Preserving Cultural Legacy
Black-owned businesses often reflect the unique culture and history of the Black community. By supporting these businesses, you are not only preserving and promoting the cultural legacy of Black people, but you are ensuring that the Black community will continue to have access to products that serve our unique needs and make our lives better, healthier, and happier.
CurlMix ONLY uses 100% natural ingredients, and we hand make all our products in our Chicago location, ensuring that you get safe, high quality products for your curls.
5.) Supports Black Entrepreneurship
By purchasing from CurlMix, you are supporting a Black-owned business and contributing to the success of black entrepreneurship. This helps to create a more diverse and inclusive economy, where black business owners have the opportunity to succeed and thrive and give back to their communities.
Kim is just one of a small handful of Black women to have raised over $1,000,000 from Venture Capital funding. She is paving the way for other Black women entrepreneurs. And you can help by purchasing from CurlMix!
Join us in celebrating Black History Month by making a conscious choice to support Black-owned businesses. Every purchase has an impact and by choosing to shop Black, you're helping to make a difference in the lives and the future of Black communities.
Let's make a change, together!
