Black Hair Care Industry In America

12:02 PM Posted In , , , Edit This 3 Comments »
This documentary is really, really depressing. It shows how the African American hair care market has been pretty much monopolized by Korea. It is really quite sad. I wonder should I be angry at the Koreans who seized the opportunity to capitalize on this market, or should I be mad at the Black community for letting it happen. What can we as blacks do to capitalize on this market?

My aunt lost her hair to Rio way back in the day. It started out well, but after a few applications, it was all gone.

I had no idea that the Koreans were so big in our market. I would have thought that Black hair care products would be the one place where Blacks could capitalize.

OMG. I was just going to do a blog about this. I read an article about how they took over last year. SMH.
