An addendum to yesterday’s post
Since writing a bulk of the post on the Black hair care and beauty industry back in 2006, BOBSA (Black Owned Beauty Supply Association) has made some additions to its services for those interested in entering this field. I am posting the following because I am still getting e-mails/comments from folks looking for advice on how to get into the business.
Beauty Supply Store Consulting Services
