Creation
Kouturelocs Shop was created in 2019 by the Directors Rosa-Lee, Charlotte and Paulette of Kouturelocs Ltd, a World Leading Loc Salon Service that specialises in Loc'd hair.
Mission
Our mission is to provide natural hair and Loc'd wearers with clothing, products and accessories that will empower them through their hair journey.
Our Story
Growing up, we experienced first-hand discrimination, stigma and struggles with our hair such as hair breakage, damage, and a lack of understanding on how to properly care for it. While trying to fit into a societal view of how our hair should be, our emotional state was harboured with feelings of our hair not being attractive coupled with the micro aggression we felt at work.
The challenges we faced were threefold:
- There were no clothes that really identified us, most time it didn’t fit very well, and the designs were very Eurocentric
- Products that we bought had harsh chemicals that had a negative impact on our hair scalp, making it dry, brittle, and sore
- No relatable hair accessories to adorn and manage our beautiful hair
- Clothing embedded with positive messages that reinforces positive attitudes towards our hair and gives people an opportunity to convey their identity through what they wear, no matter their sex.
- A selection of natural hair products that are kinder to our hair and will improve our health and mental wellbeing.
- A range of accessories that are relatable, functional, reusable, and decorative for loc wearers for any occasion.
