Gwen Jimmere was working at Ford motor company and had all the comforts of a cushy, corporate job—until she was laid off. Fortunately, Gwen had already begun working on her own company on the side, and soon after, she launched Naturalicious, a holistic beauty brand with a focus on natural haircare products. As the brand took off, Gwen realized that there was an opportunity to expand by opening a salon. And then this happened.
Let's face it, driving all over town to get your beauty services done is the opposite of self-care. That's why Gwen Jimmere, founder of Naturalicious, created Good Hair Bar – a new one-stop shop where you can literally get pampered from head to toe.In this episode, Evann chats with Gwen about how she created her ultra-successful natural haircare brand, her process for opening up a salon, why it's important to take care of yourself, and so much more.Be sure to follow Good Hair Bar on social at @goodhairbar and check out their website at www.goodhairbar.com to book your services today!
Today, I'm chatting with Gwen Jimmere. Gwen is a natural hair guru and CEO/Founder of Naturalicious. The idea to launch a natural hair brand came to Gwen in 2013. That year, she was dealing with being laid off, a divorce, and caring for her 1-year-old son. At the time, she had $32 to her name and had to think critically about what to do to generate income. That's when she decided to turn her hobby of creating all-natural hair care products into a business. Gwen's resilience has propelled Naturalicious to incredible success—the brand is sold in major retail stores like Whole Foods, Sally Beauty and Ulta Beauty. She's also made history as the first African American woman to hold a patent for a natural hair product. Gwen has also grown her Detroit-based team from 1 to 13, expanded into skincare and supplements, and written a book. During the episode, Gwen and I chatted about her journey and the lessons she's learned along the way. Press play to hear from Gwen and I hope you enjoy the episode!

Please join me on The Dedan Tolbert Show on Wed August 19th at 9:00pm eastern as I welcome author, Gwen Jimmere. In her new book, “If It Walks Like a Duck…and Other Truths My Mother Taught Me”, Gwen Jimmere delivers a wake-up call for brides-to-be who are more focused on their wedding day than the future of their marriages. As the summer wedding season gets underway, brides-to-be across the United States are working themselves into a frenzy over last minute wedding plans. However, while it's customary for most brides to be hyper-fixated on the details of their big day, one author delivers some words of caution to brides who have given far more thought to their three-carat rings and couture wedding gowns, than the future of their marriage. In her new book, “If It Walks Like a Duck…and Other Truths My Mother Taught Me,” Gwen Jimmere helps the engaged and soon-to-be engaged determine if they may be marrying for the ring rather than the Romeo. In 2007, Gwen Jimmere was happily engaged and on the brink of what she thought would be her ‘happily ever after'. Like many of her friends, and women her age, she had snagged the ring and the Romeo, and threw herself into planning the wedding she'd always dreamed of. But at a pivotal point, she suddenly realized that her relationship wasn't nearly as perfect as her wedding plans. “If It Walks Like a Duck…and Other Truths My Mother Taught Me” is available for sale on Amazon.com and in select bookstores.
