Just In Time For The HOLIDAYS!
eshe is Swahili for life. My mission is to promote the life of beautiful, healthy hair. I created these sets because I got tired of tying my hair too tight only to have my scarf fall off by morning. I realized most of my girlfriends had the same issue and decided to make something with my girls in mind! So I came up with a matching set and they had to come in luscious colors!
So I started éshé this year with the launch of the website. Finally! (I have been working on this concept for something like 6 short years. When you find something that pulls you in and seems to propel you through the process, time flies! I have definately found my passion! So don't give up! Remember: A bend in the road is not the end of the road -- unless you fail to make the turn.) I have been sacrificing a lot for a long time, but I feel blessed to be able to do this. I really appreciate the support & kindness of friends and strangers!
éshé products were recently part of the celeb gift swag at the Teddy Pendergrass Alliance Gala on June 10th! Very excited about participating in my first hair event, The Do What It Do Salon/Stylist Network Bash in Boston on July 15th. I am new to this so any advice and feedback is welcome!
Love my family and really miss New Orleans. I'm talking about the original N'Awlins- B.K.- because it will never be the same. All y'all in 504 keep ya heads up! Damn. If you've never been- you just don't know. Best childhood memories ever- thank you Maw Maw & Paw Paw!- RIP
p.s.- so many of the employees of the local new orleans newspaper lost their jobs after already losing homes, family and friends. when the population of new orleans deteriorated to 20 percent the paper had no readership and no work for its employees. you can make a donation at
