In 2011 Founder and Creator of Oemi, Allison Shimamoto went natural. Taking the leap was a no brainer. Finding products that worked for her type 4 coils was the challenge. Most natural hair curly products are designed to ‘work’ with all curl patterns. But those products left her type 4 coils dry, flat, and rigid. Fed up with the so-called natural products on the shelves, Allison made her own natural products at home. Perfecting her natural hair care craft for over 7 years then bringing Oemi it to the world. A unicorn product for all those rocking the type 4 curls.  Allison took her passion for Type 4 curlies, what the food industry does for clean eating, and transforms natural hair care with her brand Oemi. A product so natural (and delicious) you can eat it (just don’t)! Shoot...you can even slather it on your skin. We love a good 2 for 1. With Allison we talk:  Side hustling  Branding for the culture The science of the curl and textured hair Oemi , the brand, the myth, the living legend Importance of having people up, down, and sideways that believe in you  PLUS  Traveling while curly Juggling all the things The state of PoC hair care And what’s next for Oemi &amp; Allison   OEMI’s gift to you!
