History of Our Hair

This episode is loaded with great information about the History of Our Hair and a few woman Pioneers that paved the way for Beauty Professionals and Product Development.

I also share with you how each decade brought on a new style for the African American people.  

Each time you take a glimpse into our history Hair will be there, helping us define who we are at that present moment. 

Here is a list of Woman Pioneers that have hit the $1 million mark in the 1900s

• Annie Minerva Pope-Turbo Malone
• Sarah Breedlove (Madam CJ Walker)
• Sara Spencer (Madam Sarah Spencer Washington)

Each Episode I like to dispel a Myth.  Today's Myth is: Madam CJ Walker invented the pressing comb"

The pressing comb was invented by a Frenchmen of whom no one knows the name, but Marcel Grateau was known to use the pressing comb in 1872.  Marcel Grateau is the inventor of the Marcel irons.

I've read that Annie Pope Malone patent the pressing comb and Madame CJ Walker used the pressing comb.  History does show that similar combs were used as far back as 5000 years ago in Persia even with Ancient Egypt.
