The Power of Community Building with Julissa Prado

This episode is for all the curlies! We are joined by Julissa Prado, a cultural changemaker and the Founder/CEO of Rizos Curls, a clean hair care line that celebrates the beauty of curls, coils and waves everywhere through high quality products and educational content. In this conversation, we get the inspiring origin story of how Julissa went from doing friends' hair in school to a multimillion dollar company that now has products at Target, Ulta beauty, and Sally beauty Mexico. A story of family, learning to listen to yourself, and the importance of community building, we hope you walk away inspired! During the episode, Julissa mentions the Vitamin C repair hair mask, The Detox Scalp Scrub, and New Apple Cider Vinegar Scalp & Hair Rinse.
