Hair Buyers Collective (HBC)

The Hair Buyers Collective  is a movement to reshape how Black business owners engage with the current Black beauty industry, especially when it comes to purchasing extension hair from non-Black-owned businesses. Our mission began with high-quality synthetic hair, tackling problems that have been overlooked for far too long. By becoming a part of this collective, you’re not just supporting better products—you’re joining a community dedicated to challenging the status quo, reclaiming ownership in the industry, and driving real change for Black consumers and entrepreneurs alike. 

Through collaboration we will design all aspects of the hair; colors, textures, lengths, fiber, etc. For years we have faced challenges with the off-the-shelf brands that aren’t tailored to our needs, such as ill-fitting wigs or synthetic hair that tangles easily. This program seeks to change that by giving you a voice and a seat at the table about the hair you purchase. 

We invite both professionals and DIY consumers to join.  Whether for personal use, business building, or professional enhancement. By joining, members help meet minimum production requirements to manufacture these tailored products.  Hair Rich Project has built relationships with Chinese manufacturing companies over the past decade. 

This initiative champions Black ownership and control within the beauty industry, creating opportunities to reclaim economic power. By circulating dollars within Black communities, we’re fostering sustainable growth, empowering entrepreneurs, and building a stronger foundation for future generations.
