“I knew there was a need for this type of hair, and I didn’t know of any Black woman or person in this space in New York,” says Karen Mitchell, founder of 20-year luxury wig and extension brand, True Indian Hair. “I wanted to create a space where women would feel empowered by the way they look in real human hair extensions of the highest quality. To meet customer demand and growth in popularity, wigs were added to the product line around the fourth year.”
