Balancing the Universe One Natural Head at a Time
Project Description
Our mission is to balance the universe one natural head at a time.
- The mission of this project is to raise funds to place and sell more products in our local Shoprite Supermarkets; thus creating internships, freelancer positions, hair and health programs, scholarships for workshops and allowing us to connect with more families looking to live a healthier life through our natural products.
- The problems we are solving are moisturizing dry, breaking hair; helping slow growth and no growth customers and clients to grow hair and scalps that are loaded with dead skins cells that can, will and do block hair growth. We are waking our customers and clients up with creating awareness through scalp exfoliating and aromatherapy.
- The market size opportunity is close to earnings of $324,000 per store yearly.
- We provide women and their families education, training, employment, and empowerment on their freedom to choose a lifestyle that is chemical free. We were birthed with naturals in mind. No matter what the ethnic background is, our products provide families with total body wellness, beginning with hair and scalp. We are looking to expand our product line, already available at a local ShopRite, to enable us to create more in studio and at home trainings for natural professionals; as well as workshops for caregivers to teach them how to care for their families’ hair and body. Our services and products solve the issue of underrepresented women, as well as their families, not being able to style their own hair nor wash their scalps. We also train natural professionals, and women, with the knowledge of each product’s application and performance in exfoliating, cleansing, and moisturizing.
- We are seeking funding to avoid unnecessary loans giving us the freedom to share this venture with more people. The funds will be used to buy ingredients, packaging, and supply 2-3 Shoprite Supermarkets with at least 3 monthly batches of 3-4 products. It will also give us the opportunity to advertise for the services & trainings we offer; as well as and hire women to demonstrate and educate in the locations where we sell the products.
- Our team consists of 8 natural hair stylists; AhavaFelicidad, JustSayHairByKaren, MzCurlyGurly, DeeDee Does Dos, BodyArtByDev, ValCanBraid, BraidedByLou, HairVentionZ, Marissa Sanders-Young of Marissa's Kitchen, Amor Young-Visual Marketing, and Dhores Brutus business management intern. All of the women on our team and allianced with us have or are working towards associates, bachelors and masters degrees combined with 19 or more years of hands on experience in Hairbraiding, Haircare and Hairstyling, Business Management and teaching in elementary and secondary education.
- We appreciate any and all contributions. Thank you for supporting our project and all of the families we will be able to help through our products and services.

The Project FAQs
Will the sugar get stuck in my hair?
Felicidad Hair Sugars are activated sugar scrub blends that are massaged into the scalp so there is no getting stuck. The sugar granules dissolve as you are massaging and gently lift dead skin cells away from your scalp follicles. Once you rinse you will feel the difference in your scalp and hair immediately.
How is long will the project take to get off the ground?
Our plan is to steadily stock and refresh 2-3 stores monthly for a year to build towards and our goal of having a profit margin wide enough to begin creating the hair programs and implementing the scholarship based workshops.
Who will make the sugar blends? Volunteers and team members will Batch the Felicidad Hair Sugars alongside the founder creator.
Felicidad Hair Sugar's The Original Coconut Lemon Cake Hair Sugar paired with a slice of our Chef Marissa's iced lemon cake to have the sweetness flow through you from your head to your shoes.
Use the hair sugar by the heaping tsp or tbsp alongside a natural conditioner-(if you are still a shampoo user- by all means if you are not ready to quit it- shampoo, then cowash and scrub) Wet your scalp and hair and apply the conditioner- then swoop your fingers into the remaining conditioner and sugar- reaching to the top of your head into your scalp massage the sugar granules until they dissolve and do this in all areas of your scalp. The sugar will volumize the conditioner, clarify and moisturize your hair strands and make your hair softer and stronger and an easy canvas for styling products to work better.
You will notice the difference the first time and every time you use this amazing blend. Your scalp will feel cleaner than ever and you'll be uplifted from the aromatherapy for several hours after. Now enjoy your coconut lemon cake the cake if you didn't already delight in it before your wash!
