Great Entrepreneurs Don’t Just Make Money, They Serve A Need

For years in entertainment, Blackness was an afterthought and actors had to make do with stylists who were ill-equipped to style, let alone maintain the health of their hair. Enter 3rd-generation hairstylist and all-around badass businesswoman, Kim Kimble (@kimkimblehaircare). She’s the epitome of an entrepreneur who saw a need and became the answer. We chatted at the Essence & New Voices Entrepreneurship Summit in Atlanta, and it was such an insightful conversation. Her years of experience equipped her to take it a step further and create haircare products that spoke to the health of all Black hair and not just for celebrities. It’s refreshing to see businesses and brands succeed because they serve a need just like Kim Kimble Haircare. Use #UnBossedPodcast to let us know what you think of the episode!
