Ambra Jordan and Leandres Christopher Founders of Knot-ed Knot-ed curates a monthly subscription box, the Knot-Box, filled with all of the products, tools, accessories, tutorials, AND HAIR, needed to complete 2-3 protective styles from the comfort of your home. We started the company because we were frustrated with the process of finding and sourcing quality hair products or locating stylists that could actually do our hair. In our attempt to solve this problem for ourselves, we realized that we could do so on a much larger scale, in a way that other consumers like us and our community could benefit from. Our mission is to make quality haircare accessible to Black women all across the U.S. (and eventually the world). Our goal is to do this whilepromoting Black-owned and women-owned businesses; companies that arecreated by the individuals who face these problems, but are also doing something about it!
