BUSINESS TIPS How to Build Trust and Expertise with After Action Reviews (AARs)

Do you lead your team to learn primarily from successes or from failures?

Many leaders argue that their teams are just too busy to spend time discussing why a successful project went well. They just wrap up fast, then dive into the next project.

So, the unspoken insights and unwritten lessons learned from that project rarely ever get shared or discussed. Often, they just get forgotten in the frenzy of working project after project.

Prioritizing Peace

Acompany’s success lies not only in quality products and services, but also in the hard work of its employees. Employees work their best when they feel valued, connected, peaceful, and supported. According to an article by the US Department of Labor, a 2021 American Psychological Association survey reported that nearly 3 in 5 employees (59%) said they had experienced negative impacts of work-related stress.

Life and business can be unpredictable and stressful situations cannot always be avoided. However, prioritizing a work environment that fosters mental well-being is a win-win for everyone. One way to embrace a positive work culture is to have a system of regular check-ins with your employees. Another way is to establish an open communication policy, encourage honest feedback, and set up a health and wellness program or a newsletter with tips for coping with stress. These are things that can help your team feel important, which can boost morale. To read about fostering teamwork, check out “How To Build Trust With After Action Reviews” on page 20.

Our April issue focuses on natural hair products and tools that support healthy hair growth, hair repair, and curl definition. Check out Expert Advice Natural Hair Trends on page 10 and our industry tips in Beauty Ambassador on page 72. On page 30, we provide highlights from the successful Jinny Big Show in Miami, FL, Atlanta, GA, and Cinnaminson, NJ, and feature an interview with the President of Jinny, Eddie Jhin. Our Manufacturer Profile on page 68 features Cherice Williams, founder of Blaq Luxury Hair Products.

UNDERSTANDING THE CURLY HAIR PATTERN

You can take things to the next level by becoming knowledgeable about natural hair textures and wave patterns. This knowledge can help you and your employees better relate to your customers.

WAVY

TYPE 2A: This curl type is almost straight but has a slight curl. It has a loose undefined pattern. It’s easy to create a tousled natural look.

TYPE 2B: This curl type tends to be straighter at the root but gets wavier towards the middle and end of the hair strand.

TYPE 2C: This curl type forms waves and

ringlets that start at the crown and look like an “S” shape.

CURLY

TYPE 3A: This curl pattern features large well-defined curls in a ringlet or spiral shape.

TYPE 3B: This curl pattern tends to be springy curls that give the hair a lot of volume. The circumference is close to the size of a marker.

TYPE 3C: The 3C pattern usually features thicker strands with a tighter curl pattern, giving the hair a lot of volume. The circumference is closer to the size of a straw.

COILY

TYPE 4A: This curly type is known for small tight coils that start at the root and continue to the end of the strand. They look like an “S” shaped coil.

TYPE 4B: The 4B curl patterns resemble a zig-zag shape versus a curl. This curl pattern has more shrinkage and less definition.

TYPE 4C: This also has a zig-zag pattern and is a significantly tighter curl pattern.

TOP 3 TRIMMERS OF 2023

All manufacturers are doing a great job providing tools barbers/stylists could have only dreamed about just a few short years ago. After testing and plugging in the numbers, we had a tie for third place, giving it to the Babyliss Snap FX and the Low Pro trimmer coming in at 16 points. We really liked the removable battery on the Snap FX and look forward to seeing what innovations they come up with in the future.

For second place, we have the new Stylecraft Instinct Trimmer with its innovative new Vector motor technology and 4-hour runtime coming in at 18 points. Extra points were awarded due to the multiple charging options, including stand and power.

The Saber Trimmer comes in at 19 points for first place from multiple charging options, including the stand, micro USB support, and the whisper-quiet digital brushless motor. Brushless motors are fairly new to the barber industry. With no brushes to wear out in the motor they are said to last longer and have less internal friction.

How to Build Trust and Expertise with After Action Reviews (AARs)

Do you lead your team to learn primarily from successes or from failures?

Many leaders argue that their teams are just too busy to spend time discussing why a successful project went well. They just wrap up fast, then dive into the next project.

So, the unspoken insights and unwritten lessons learned from that project rarely ever get shared or discussed. Often, they just get forgotten in the frenzy of working project after project.

Would you hire an engineer to build you a bridge if all that engineer ever studied was how bridges collapse? Would you hire a recruiter to find you a job if all that recruiter ever studied was how people get fired?

The best leaders help their teams learn regularly from their successes, not just occasionally from their failures. But learning from success happens automatically… doesn’t it?

AFTER ACTION REVIEW (AAR)

Soldiers perform complex, dynamic, often dangerous missions. And they want to learn as much as they can from each one. In the 1980s, leaders in the US Army realized that they needed a practical way to help soldiers share the unspoken insights and unwritten lessons they learned from their missions. They realized that sharing tribal knowledge and applying tacit skill were key to winning wars. And since it was the Army, they developed a process -- a non-punitive, semistructured, post job team debrief called an After Action Review (AAR).

After Action Reviews have proven so wildly effective that every branch of the military now uses them. And for some units like flight crews and Special Operations Forces, AARs are almost a religion. They’ve been called, “one of the most successful organizational learning methods yet devised.”

20 OTC Beauty Magazine April 2023 BUSINESS TIPS
BY
SCAN TO LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR MENS PRODUCTS

The process of leading a basic AAR is simple. Soon after your team completes a project, gather them in a private space for about 30 minutes, and ask these four questions:

1. What did we set out to do?

2. What did we actually do?

3. How did it turn out the way it did?

4. What will we do differently next time?

WHY USE THESE QUESTIONS?

• Have you ever had a discussion degenerate into a fact-free “war of opinions”? That’s the fate you’ll suffer if you start a debrief by asking for opinions. True, questions 3 and 4 are subjective and do indeed ask for opinions. But notice that questions 1 and 2 are much more fact-based. It may seem silly to ask, “What did we intend to do in this job?” But different people have different goals for the same job. The accountant on your team may have intended to maximize revenue. The safety specialist on your team may have intended to reduce the risk of injuries. The team leader may have wanted to finish the job ahead of

schedule and under budget. So always start your After Action Reviews by getting facts with questions 1 and 2 before getting opinions with questions 3 and 4.

• “What went well, and what went badly?” This may seem like a great question for a debrief. After all, it cuts straight to the point, right? Here’s the problem. This question nudges us to discuss blame, not improvements. And blame stops learning in its tracks. Look at the four After Action Review questions. There’s no hint of fault, failure or blame in any of them. That’s intentional. After Action Reviews focus on learning, not blame. Make sure you keep that focus in every AAR you lead.

• Soldiers are fond of sayings like, “No mission plan ever survives contact with reality” or “The planning is more valuable than the plan.” And in reality, the percentage of complex missions that go exactly according to plan is nearly 0%. Soldiers and other experts in complex, dynamic systems know that in any given job, there’s always a gap between what we plan to do and what we actually do. Notice how question 1 asks about the plan. Some call this “Work as Imagined.” Question 2 asks about the actual job. Some call this “Work as Done.” When you lead your After Action Reviews, use questions 1 and 2 to explore this critical gap, but not eliminate it.

THREE COMMON MISTAKES AND HOW TO AVOID THEM

1. SUCCESSES VS. FAILURES -------------------------------

Some leaders do AARs only for accidents or errors. If you do that, your team will quickly associate AARs with failure. And they’ll give short, vague answers to get it over with as fast as possible. So, lead about 80% or more of your AARs for successful projects. That way, your team will learn to trust the process and value the results.

2. NOW VS. LATER -------------------------------------------

Unspoken insights and lessons learned are the most valuable things a team can discuss in an After Action Review. Those

unspoken ideas have a half-life of hours or less. So, if you wait a day or more to lead your AAR, much of the priceless, unspoken wisdom will already have been lost, perhaps forever. So, lead the AAR as soon as the project wraps.

3. LEADER VS. FACILITATOR -----------------------------

Most leaders like to answer questions. Usually that’s a good thing. But not in an After Action Review. If you give in to the temptation to answer the questions, you’ll shut your team down until the only person talking is you. So, in an After Action Review, remember that the leader is the person who talks the least. Choose your AAR leaders accordingly.

If you want a low-cost, low-risk way to build trust and expertise on your team, you will likely never find a more practical method than leading After Action Reviews. If the US Army has used them for 40+ years, just imagine what kind of value they could create for your team.

KNOWLEDGE TO KNOW

1. Positioning.

Some marketers consider the word brand to be a four-letter word. The job of marketers and business leaders, they say, is to position a company or product in the market.

The brand becomes how customers define it, and, hopefully, they define it based on your considerable efforts.

The best marketers see this work of positioning to be the first and most important activity. They have learned to be comfortable with discomfort, because good positioning feels limiting. Good positioning is uncomfortably narrow.

Being on video and watching videos is today’s business norm. A recent survey showed 76% of consumers watched a video before purchasing a product. Social media influencers promote products through videobased storytelling. You login to video meetings daily with prospects and customers.

All Video is Video Content Marketing: 5 Rules For Greater Reach

Since 2005, the year YouTube launched, video has increasingly grown in prevalence, production value, and consumption. Then in 2020 video marketing took a massive leap forward with the pandemic-induced use of video conferencing, podcasts (with video), and livestreams.

Today, YouTube is the most used social platform for research purposes among business-to-business decisions makers with 50.9% of users. And every day more than 300 million people participate in a Zoom meeting.

The reluctant say about video meetings, “It’s not going away.” Strategic leaders, though, say, “Video is how we do business now.”

In today’s business world all video is video content marketing. Zoom is not a phone call with video. Whether it’s a livestream or a self-produced YouTube short, your videos still need to follow a handful of rules.

It’s a single, narrowly defined target buyer. Your videos—live and recorded—will improve once you know who you are producing them for and what their motivations are.

2. Differentiation. What makes you different is what gets people’s attention. Not different for different sake, but a viable, propositional difference which appeals to your ideal buyer.

It’s a noisy, messy, and chaotic market. You want to be a brand which means you can charge a premium. If there is nothing to distinguish yourself from the competition, then you’re a commodity and you can only compete on price.

Your differentiation needs to be relevant and clearly expressed on all your video channels, especially video meetings. The first step is to shift responsibility for video meetings from operations to marketing. The next step, especially with a hybrid workforce, is to make sure that everyone who shows up on video is well trained and that their presence represents the value of the brand.

3. Distribution.

Where to post your videos is determined by positioning and differentiation, not trend or fashion. A fishing guide once said,

26 OTC Beauty Magazine April 2023

“You’re not fishing unless you have fish under your boat.” Or as Maverick said to Goose in the first Top Gun, “Target rich environment.”

Distribution can include everything from the social media platform (LinkedIn, TikTok) to the video distributor (YouTube, Vimeo) to the livestream platform. It answers what and how of your video content strategy.

Regardless of platform, you want all your videos to do one thing: direct interested parties to your website. There they learn more about you and begin to fall in love with you.

Distribution isn’t a benign decision. It says a lot about who you are and the people you’re trying to reach.

4. Story

Stories draw prospects in and customers closer. A well-told story engages the right people into a deeper, more meaningful conversation.

The right story you want to tell elevates the customer as hero. It captures your positioning and differentiation. How you will tell your story—written, audible, or visual—will be determined by the platform you choose and the audience you want to reach.

Tiktok is both a genre of video and a distribution platform. The audience consumes video through a spontaneous scroll. How you tell your story on TikTok may not work on LinkedIn.

Additionally, your video meetings, podcasts, and livestream productions express the story of your brand. The way you show up on video tells a story. But is it the right story? Your video meetings and podcast presence need to set the tone and timbre of future engagements.

Meet Patrick

5. Surprise

Better video is an act of kindness. Do everything you can to be more present across the lens.

We all spend enough time in front of a camera. When you show up on camera with a better-than-expected presence, you surprise people. Surprise is one ingredient in being unforgettable.

When you are not present, people check out. When you are present, people respond. Presence is what you say before you say a word.

Your presence should communicate confidence, power, and credibility. This will surprise some people. When combined with confidence, you’ll be more persuasive.

Conclusion.

Video content is a critical component to your digital content marketing strategy. All video—whether meetings, podcasts, e-learning, or social media—deserve careful review and attention.

Video is a powerful and compelling medium. These five rules provide the framework you need to begin to evaluate what you’ve already produced and what you plan to produce.

Say to yourself, “Video is how we do business now.” Go and do it.

He pulls together three-decades in marketing, innovation, and leadership. McGowan started Punchn to address the challenges and insecurities we all face when on camera.

Check out our interview with the President of Jinny Corp, Mr. Eddie Jhin.

Q&A

questions and answers

OTC: What trends do you think are important for OTC business owners to keep on their radar?

Mr. Jhin: In order to be a very successful beauty supply owner and or a manager in 2023, they will need to stay on top of any type of social media message or a video that has positively impacted our beauty industry. This will help you decide which type of product you want to stock in your store and stay ahead of the retail chain stores such as Walmart because it takes longer for them to react to the current top trend. Please remember that social media influencers are changing how a new or an existing product can surpass any expectation over the old fashion marketing campaigns such as print, radio and television. This type of media will only get bigger and bigger for our industry.

OTC: What changes would you like to see in the beauty industry?

Mr. Jhin: I want our vendors to respect and support our OTC store owners and managers for what they do for our industry. I would like to see more support, such as making more free samples for consumers, marketing support (social media and marketing materials), hiring a merchandiser crew, coordinating education meetings, and firmly believing that our OTC store channel is very important to our industry.

OTC: What’s the best business advice you have received?

Mr. Jhin: The very first one was when my father told me to sacrifice with hard work, and this is the only way it will all work out in the end. The second one is what I have been doing for many years, keeping a daily journal of things to do that day and checking off the items when it is done and do not throw away that daily sheet until the entire list of things to be done for that day are all crossed out. If you do this daily, it will be weekly, monthly, and eventually yearly. You will be very surprised how you will change yourself to be better in a short amount of time. It’s not the big and impactful things you do that matter the most, it’s what you do daily that matters, and I promise you these minor events will bring you the big, impactful moments.

This new trimmer is sure to become the next must-have tool for barbers and stylists featuring the latest technology, including revolutionary induction charging and nextlevel design that pays homage to the brand’s leadership in innovation.

The beSPOKE Trimmer’s design is a nod to the future with an ergonomic shape, sleek lines, and a modern, metallic color palette with elegant champagne accents toasting Andis Company’s spectacular history. But what’s most unique is the tool’s wireless charging technology. The induction charging stand provides convenient, wireless charging while proudly displaying your trimmer, and is compatible with other induction charging Qi-compatible devices, such as your phone.

Andis North American Artistic Team Lead, Kenny Duncan, feels that “the solid housing of the beSPOKE Trimmer helps increase the torque of this versus any other trimmer I’ve ever used. The easily accessible wireless charging stand makes it easy to charge my trimmer, then, even easier to charge my phone. The on/off switch includes a lock setting that helps keep my tool off during travel. The blade set meets the standard of excellence I expect from Andis while being pushed by an intuitive body design that makes trimming fun”.

The beSPOKE Trimmer delivers power and precision with a high-speed rotary motor and lithium-ion battery, providing 1.5 hours of cordless freedom to create. The open-blade design combined with the premium GTX-Z blade provides crisp visibility for tight lines, slick fades and top-notch design work.

Available now, the beSPOKE Trimmer includes a premium wireless induction charging stand, phone charging clip, 4 attachment combs, charging adapter, oil bottle, replacement yoke, and carries a one-year warranty.

Empowering Women to Transform their Hair Care Experience, Cantu Beauty and Celebrity Stylist Angela Stevens Continue Deep-Rooted 5-Year Partnership with Release of New Protective Styles Collection

ward-winning textured hair care brand Cantu Beauty and Emmy award-winning celebrity stylist and hair expert, Angela Stevens, are transforming the hair styling experience with the brand’s new Protective Styles by Angela collection, a line of products that nourish and protect wigs, braids, weaves and locs, while helping to promote healthy hair growth. Embracing versatility and accessibility, this new collection helps consumers save a few coins while reclaiming some of the long hours these styles routinely take.

“Since I was a child, I have loved the artistry of creating protective styles, adding hair to my braids and playing with extensions started out of necessity to make myself feel confident about my damaged hair,” says Stevens. “The problem in many of our communities is that product knowledge usually isn’t part of the conversation. This line with Cantu is about educating ourselves on not only how to achieve these looks but also discovering the products that nourish our unique hair textures, providing longer wear for the styles we love.”

56 OTC Beauty Magazine April 2023 INDUSTRY NEWS
The collection of six multi-use products for natural hair and extensions including styling your wigs, braids, weaves & locs is now available at CVS, Target and Walmart

Protective Styles by Angela collection is a line of products that nourish and protect the hair while helping to promote healthy hair growth.

Whether consumers are looking for a way to refresh their strands after a long day or seeking to extend a protective style for a bit longer until the next wash day, the Cantu Beauty Protective Styles by Angela collection includes a Hair Bath that cleanses and nourishes hair strands, combined with the Conditioning Detangler, which removes tangles while also adding moisture and shine, providing the foundation for healthy hair, while the Braiding and Twisting Gel helps achieve the perfect style without damaging your hair. Additionally, the Set and Refresh Foam and Hair Freshener are perfect for refreshing and deodorizing hair, while the Daily Oil Drops provide the perfect amount of moisture for a healthy scalp.

Find the full collection at CVS, Target and Walmart, and coming soon to local beauty supply stores, making it easy for consumers to find and try the products that suit their hair type and achieve their hair goals.

“The Cantu Protective Styles by Angela line has been carefully formulated for our community of Black and Brown women who all agree we want our styles to last longer, but also want to nourish our hair and scalp,” says Nikia Bowman, Global Marketing Director at Cantu Beauty. “As someone who likes to rock braids, I know what it’s like to want the versatility and ease that comes with protective styling without having to sacrifice the health of my hair or break the bank to get lengthy wear of the look. With Angela’s expertise at the helm, I couldn’t be more thrilled to partner with her to develop this collection from concept to shelf and deliver products that won’t make you choose between style, care, or long-lasting wear – we finally get it all.”

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO EMPOWER CONFIDENCE IN YOUR CLIENT’S HAIR SYSTEMS

Ethico Releases The Most Comprehensive System To Strengthen E&C Functions Amidst Increasing Demand For Ethical Workplaces

E&C and HR solutions provider, Ethico, unveils the ECOsystem (Ethics & Compliance Optimization System), designed to fulfill the needs of the modern workplace including: scalable risk mitigation, cultural improvements, and more

Ethico, a leader in integrated risk management solutions, unveils a coordinated system to meet the demand for ethically run, valuesforward businesses. The ECOsystem (Ethics & Compliance Optimization System) provides a holistic approach to improving an organization’s risk mitigation and program performance, work culture, and employee engagement metrics.

of any organization’s ethical champions by providing them with: next-generation technology, client-over-everything support, and a holistic approach to redefine their workplaces. By utilizing a collaborative system of solutions, an ethical professional can maintain the oversight necessary to manage risk across multiple sectors and workstreams, while prioritizing the most pressing risks their organization is facing.

With Gallup reporting that only 32% of employees in the U.S. claim to be actually engaged at work, it’s clear that businesses are leaving a huge amount of profitability and productivity unclaimed. The key to re-engaging the majority of the workforce lies in better work cultures and stronger reputational health, with more demonstrable values in the operations of a business. Ethics, Compliance, and HR functions are perfectly poised to push such initiatives, but as typically under-resourced departments, these ethical professionals need to be empowered by something greater than a patchwork of single solutions in order to achieve their missions.

The ECOsystem is Ethico’s way of putting power in the hands

Ethico’s solutions synergize within the ECOsystem to provide the flexibility and power to establish an authentically ethical culture, with all of its positive externalities. That means: increased employee engagement, reduced turnover, mitigated risk, lower threat of lawsuits and fines, and a more values-driven workplace.

The ECOsystem has fully configurable modules to maintain and upscale the essential pillars of a modern workplace, such as:

• Investigation Process - Case Management Software, Omnichannel Issue Intake, Incident Management, and Data Analytics & Reporting leverage the advantages of Ethico’s unique Adaptive Interview methodology to consistently gather and display the most pertinent information from

64 OTC Beauty Magazine April 2023 INDUSTRY NEWS

reporters. This provides clear incident data, allowing investigators to close cases up to 2.5 times faster, and allowing E&C and HR professionals to make a clear business case for their programs.

About Ethico:

• Work Culture - Exit & Stay Interviews, HR & Compliance Training Libraries, Awareness & Communications, and Ethics Portal promote a culture that lives out the values espoused by an organization while rooting out latent risks within the workforce. This creates a healthy foundation where culture and employees can thrive.

Ethico’s ECOsystem (Ethics and Compliance Optimization) allows leaders to manage risk, reinforce culture, and establish ethical work environments with flexible & powerful next-gen technology solutions including: Data Analytics & Reporting, Case Management Software, Omnichannel Issue Intake, Flexible Disclosure Forms, Incident Management, Sanction Monitoring, Awareness & Communications, Third Party Risk Management, Ethics Portal, Exit & Stay Interviews, HR & Compliance Training Library, and Conflicts of Interest.

• Risk Mitigation - Sanction Screening, Third Party Risk Monitoring, along with Flexible Disclosures Forms and Conflicts of Interest solutions concentrate oversight on your organization’s greatest areas of risk. This provides the risk sensors of an organization the ability to catch risks before they cost the organization revenue.

Ethico has made ethics easy for over 25 years by empowering those who care most to Make The World A Better Workplace with holistic tools that help leaders who care to crowdsource risk management at scale effectively, focus efforts on the most meaningful priorities, and create a clear business case that reinforces a true culture of organic integrity.

No matter the challenge a workplace is facing, one or all of the ECOsystem’s modules can be leveraged to begin the process of modernizing any workplace, regardless of size, industry, or mission.

“People are sick of wrestling with status quo, Frankenstein solutions that haven’t been updated in a decade,” said Nick Gallo, Chief Servant and Co-CEO of Ethico. “Ethics should be easy, and that’s why we are excited to introduce the ECOsystem to the world. It is exciting to be a part of the next generation of solutions that help folks actually reduce risk while upgrading their ethical foundations to reinforce authentic cultures of integrity.”

Blaq Luxury Hair Products

Starting a hair brand takes bravery, brilliance, and a positive mindset. We chatted with Cherice Williams about her success, her perseverance, and the future of Blaq Luxury Hair Products.

OTC: How did you get your start in the beauty business?

Cherice Williams: Blaq Luxury Hair Products was created as a solution for my personal journey of finding a healthy alternative for my hair. I have always been in love and passionate about all things relating to beauty. I would do YouTube videos on hair styles and tips. Create bold, fashionable hairstyles and wear colors in my hair that one would consider “out of the norm”. So, I do believe that beauty found me because that’s who I have been since I was young.

OTC: What inspired you to create Blaq Luxury Hair Products?

Cherice: Blaq Luxury Hair Products evolved from my sheer determination of finding an optimal solution for my dry and brittle hair that resulted from PCOS, which is a hormone disorder that can have an adverse effect on the health and quality of your hair. I realized that a lot of the ingredients in the products that I was using, attributed to the excess breakage and through extensive research, it was a creation in my kitchen of over 20 potent and effective oils known as the Mega Gro Hair Serum that led to the birth of a successful company, which became our best-selling product to date. We have sold over 250,000 bottles.

OTC: I read that you invested in yourself. What inspired you to take that route to get started?

Cherice: To scale any business, you must make that initial investment. Once I realized that there is a market for the product. I knew I needed to give it the push and turn it into a brand. At that time, I was working as a waitress, and I used my saved tips to advertise the brand across a popular

media platform on Instagram. Our website crashed after the ad; we were sold out completely. We had people signing up for restocks and within 6 months we had fulfilled over 50,000 orders and took the business from home based to our first 2,000 sq ft warehouse. Our customers fell in love with our products, and we had a high repeat customer rate and we started to grow organically by word of mouth.

OTC: What do you feel sets your brand apart?

Cherice: We are a vibe; we are a culture. We take by us and for us literally, we listen to our consumers which we refer to as the “BL Beauties” and give them what they want. Our products are never formulated with sulfates, parabens, mineral oils or other harsh chemicals and we never compromise quality for quantity.

OTC: What are your top selling products and why do you think they are doing so well?

Cherice: The entire Sage & Lychee collection does well but, our top selling product is the Mega Gro Hair Serum followed by the Sage and Lychee Shampoo, Conditioner and Styling Lotion. I believe these products do well because they are affordable and larger in size in comparison to other competing brands for the same price. The products do consist of certified organic ingredients which most individuals are now taking that healthier approach to hair care. Our products are truly effective, and they deliver on what they are supposed to do.

OTC: How can OTC stores benefit from having your product line in their stores?

68 OTC Beauty Magazine March 2023 MANUFACTURER PROFILE

Cherice: The OTC stores can benefit from our brand as they will be taking in a unique range of products that are conceptualized and packaged attractively which will not only increase revenue and sales but also have an awareness or loyalty surrounding the brand.

OTC: What suggestions do you have about store placement of your items?

Cherice: To be seen on end caps, or on mid-level shelfs.

OTC: What marketing efforts do you feel have worked well for your brand?

Cherice: We owe much of our brand success to social media. We are extremely engaged on social media, and we have built a community that our consumers trust. We make our consumers feel like family rather than just being “customers”.

OTC: What do you feel has changed the most for your business over the past year?

Cherice: Growth. We scaled into a bigger warehouse; our revenue increased almost 160% since the previous year. Our repeating customer rate increased; our new customer rate also increased.

OTC: What is the best business or life advice anyone has ever given you?

Cherice: One of the best pieces of advice I got early on is to listen to your customers. Don't try to change your customers' idea of what they need. Instead, listen to them and create offerings that truly solve their problems

OTC: What is the legacy you want your brand to have?

Cherice: I want our brand to be known or remembered as a refreshing deviation in a highly saturated market that created high-performing, healthy and result driven products created by a woman of color.

OTC: Are there any new and exciting projects you are working on that our readers should know about?

Cherice: We are actively working on a new collection. That our “curlfriends” are going to love. Very tropical, soothing, and hydrating.

Industry Knowledge is Power

The saying knowledge is power is so true! However, knowing how and when to apply that knowledge is even more powerful. Check out a few of these hair terms that you can become familiar with. These may come in handy when salon owners, hair stylists, and even barbers come into your shop.

Industry Terms

Hair Strands: Each hair strand is made up of the medulla (inner region), cortex (second layer for strength), and cuticle(outer layer). The cuticle has overlapping layers to strengthen and protect the hair strand.

Porosity

This is a term used by hair professionals all the time. It means the hair’s ability to soak in moisture. For example, someone with highly porous hair has holes on the cuticle layer of each strand. It means the hair can

absorb more water and moisturizing products, well. Some people’s hair becomes more porous from using heat or chemicals. However, some people have naturally porous hair.

Density

Hair density concerns the amount of hair on someone’s head. When it’s easier to see someone’s scalp, that person may have lower hair density. Lower-density hair could benefit from lightweight sprays and hair milk. However, if someone has a lot of hair that looks very thick and it’s harder to see their scalp, they may have high hair density. High-density hair could benefit from creams to add luster.

We look forward to hearing from you and thank you for supporting this publication. 보내주신 답변 중 몇몇을 뽑아 다음달에 기재하도록 하겠습니다. 몇 개의 질문에 답변을 함으로써, 여러분이 잡지에 실릴 수 있는 것입니다! 여러분의 성원에 감사 드리며, 많은 참여 부탁 드리겠습니다.
