African Cuts

This is not yet smash it but an interesting idea for those of us crazy about our beautiful African hair! I spotted it while hunting for black hair applications on Grow VC which is a crowfunding platform to help people with good ideas to launch their projects  through funding from the crowd. A group of investors can chip in and finance various projects and acquire a share of the ownership on your project while giving you the much needed lifeline and expertise to see your idea through to success.

While black/African hair is a multi-billion dollar business, not many African or non African entrepreneurs have invested in online black hair tools be it online hair styling, online hair social network for African sisters, online hair tips, online apps for black hair! While someone please do that? I will definitely pump a thousand bucks to see such a project come to fruition.

Hairslayer.com is more of a directory of hairstylists and barbers primarily based in the US. It's a good idea but would rather need greater input in terms of content creators, applications, more robust social networking features, hair tips, hair recommendations, videos on black hair styling and more. So am urging African sisters out there with a tech bent who understand hair, create some portal of this nature and it would be a smash hit! After all, business in black/African  hair is worth billions of dollars.
