#008: Imagine being told you’ll lose all your hair in two weeks. That’s what happened to today's guest Margot Greer after receiving a cancer diagnosis straight out of college. And finding a wig that she could afford, that suited her age, ethnicity and looked natural? Impossible. Nevermind something ethical or sustainable.
Now Margot is the founder of Woven Hair, an inclusive & ethically sourced hair extension company that gives back to women with medically induced hair loss.
In today's session, we'll discuss the importance “traceability“ in the hair industry and any ethical business, why you need to define the single most important thing your customer needs to know — even if you’re doing a million EcoSassy things, and how the ethical shopper is way more informed than the average consumer and what your business needs to do about it.
