Chapter 1: Becoming Uncomfortable

On September 1, 2020, during the midst of the pandemic, I walked in and out of a popular beauty supply store empty-handed. I sat in my car and watched two other women exit the store empty-handed. The inconvenience of not having a beauty supply store within a 20-mile radius that carried wigs, hair extensions, or styling products for ethnic hair was alarming. Who wants to take a road trip to buy a wig? Even worse, how about ordering a wig online only to learn that it looked better on the mannequin than on you?

Chapter 2: A Store is Born

 After a year and a half of praying, saving, researching, and preparing, Mega Beauty Supply opened its doors on January 16, 2022!

We are extremely happy that the community embraced Mega.  During our first year, we collected your requests, and as a result, we are launching this campaign. With your help, we can offer a wider range of requested products, host monthly events where experts come and teach community members how to achieve and maintain healthy hair, and increase marketing.

Chapter 3: Why Open a Beauty Supply Store

Mega Beauty recognizes the challenges that Black women face when it comes to finding hair care products that work for them. Before Mega Beauty opened, women in our community had to drive at least 20 miles or more just to find a beauty supply store with a selection of wigs, hair extensions, and ethnic hair care products, which is not only inconvenient but can also be expensive and time-consuming.

That’s why we’ve made it a priority to open a beauty supply store that caters to the needs of  women in our community. We carry a wide range of hair care products for all hair types including: shampoos, conditioners, styling products, wigs, and hair extensions. Our staff members are knowledgeable about Black hair care and are trained to provide excellent customer service to all customers, regardless of their race or ethnicity.

We believe that all women deserve to feel beautiful and confident, and Mega Beauty is committed to providing a shopping experience that is inclusive, respectful, and empowering.

Chapter 4: The Mega Experience

Upon entering our store, you’ll immediately notice the warm and inviting atmosphere that we’ve created for our customers. Our store is organized in a way that makes it easy for you to find the products you need. Our store is not only well organized but also smells nice and is melodious. We understand that shopping for the perfect wig or hair extensions can sometimes be overwhelming, which is why we’ve made it a point to create a calm and relaxing atmosphere that makes customers feel at ease. You’ll be greeted by the pleasant scent of essential oils and other aromatherapy products, which have been carefully selected to promote a sense of relaxation and wellbeing. Our carefully curated playlist of R&B music adds to the overall ambiance of the store and makes your shopping experience even more enjoyable.

Chapter 5: What's Next

Mega Beauty Supply is excited to announce a crowdfunding campaign, aimed at acquiring the necessary funds to meet the demands of its growing customer base. With an increasing number of customers seeking high-quality beauty products, Mega Beauty's top priority is to satisfy the demands of its loyal customers. This is also an opportunity for the community to support a local small business that has been dedicated to meeting the beauty needs of the community. The success of this campaign will allow Mega Beauty Supply to expand its reach, offer a wider range of products, and continue to be a go-to source for quality hair care products.
