Best Practices

• •Anchor in Heritage and Trust: Consistently weave in the brand's long-standing presence ("over three decades," "since 1990") and its position as a "trusted" name to reinforce authority and reliability.
• •Speak Directly to the Target Audience: Acknowledge and address the specific needs and hair care journey of Black women and the braiding community (both professionals and individuals). Use inclusive language that resonates with their experiences.
• •Highlight Problem-Solving and Efficacy: Frame product benefits as solutions to common braiding challenges (e.g., flaking, short hairs, scalp irritation, maintaining styles). Be clear and confident about how the products work.
• •Maintain a Professional Yet Caring Voice: While authoritative, the tone should also convey understanding and a commitment to the well-being of the customer's hair and scalp, reflecting its founding principles.
• •Ensure Clarity and Directness: Use straightforward language when describing products, their ingredients (especially beneficial ones like essential oils or what it's free from like alcohol), and their uses, avoiding overly technical jargon unless explaining a specific benefit.
