We had the good fortune of connecting with Ahdaja Fletcher and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Ahdaja, where are your from? We’d love to hear about how your background has played a role in who you are today?
I’m from Dallas,tx the oak cliff area born and raised it definitely played a part into who i am today. Being from oak cliff being around other kids who looked like me was easy yes but it definitely had it’s time we’re the picking on another defiantly got to me but didn’t break me it made me into a strong woman who don’t fall for anything and stand up for myself so I thank it all

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
My business is selling hair but with a much bigger purpose anybody can sell hair and call it their own. My brand is about uplifting every girl / woman in the world who doesn’t feel “pretty” enough by what society defines your hair is a major role in that so I want to give girls the opportunity to have that I want to build a personal bond with most of my loyal customers so they can feel at home and not just an order number. I’ve learned that with time comes all the milestones and you can’t compare your business to others everybody is not the same.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
My favorite places to go is studio movie grill breakfast brothers or cheddars and anything exciting so six flags Dave and busters etc

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I’ll like to thank my high school teachers who turned into my mentors since I graduated mrs.Mercer, ms.amazing and mr Gipson they never let me doubt myself and always recognized my smarts and work ethic and for that I’m truly thankful, also to my best friends Dee &Jada smith who halve been my business partners and who have let every vision I have come to life and jada by putting her all on it by being one of the faces to my brand. Most of all thank god for the times I thought I couldn’t do it he put faith in me knowing it was going to be a bigger outcome.
