All of her products utilize organic ingredients with a focus on serving black, brown, multiracial, and multi-ethnic moms and their children. Her most popular item is called 'The Everything Cream,' which can be used on your hair, face, and skin. Her soothing scalp serum helps with dandruff and mosquito bites."
"After experimenting with natural hair care products while in school, a mainstream curly hair product caused her hair to fall out, prompting her to create her products. With rave reviews from friends and the encouragement of a business professor mentor, she went down the route of entrepreneurship. Her business was initially a part-time venture, but with great success, Haiama Beauty became her full-time job."
Allison Shimamoto founded Haiama Beauty in Philadelphia to offer clean, organic hair and skin products tailored to Black, brown, multiracial, and multi-ethnic mothers and their children. The product line includes multiuse items like The Everything Cream for hair, face, and skin, and a soothing scalp serum that treats dandruff and mosquito bites. A negative reaction to a mainstream curly hair product motivated product development. Early customer praise and a business professor mentor encouraged entrepreneurship. The venture grew from part-time to full-time production at the Bok building, where formulations are created to be gentle on curls and environmentally friendly.
