Plant-based Hair Extensions & Plum Kernel Oil ft. Rebundle Extension’s Ciara Imani May and Le Prunier’s Allison Taylor

Launching a business in beauty is hard. Period. But launching a business in beauty that can thoughtfully navigate the demands of the industry while caring for our planet? Next level. Which is exactly why Rebundle Extension’s Ciara Imani May and Le Prunier’s Allison Taylor were the perfect guests to speak about the intersection of business and environmental impact. I sat down with Ciara to discuss how her compostable, banana-fiber-based hair extensions are slowly but surely changing the Black hair industry, and Allison to talk about how she and her sisters flipped their family plum farm on its head to create a business completely based on the kernels that everyone else seemed to ignore. Tune in as both founders discuss the successes, the remaining challenges around access and redefining luxury, and how they strive to implement sustainable practices in their personal lives.
