A Higher Quality Hair Distributor in Philadelphia PA

🚨 PART 1🚨

Let me tell y’all about a new client experience that completely changed the way I handle new clients at A Higher Quality Co. 😩

At the time, I didn't realize it…

…but this appointment was about to teach me a VERY important lesson.

A new client reached out wanting to book.

We talked.

We discussed what she wanted.

And eventually…

she booked.

Now, normally, I would think:

"Okay! I know what she wants. Let's get her in the chair.”

But there was ONE very important step that didn't happen.

And honestly?

I didn't realize how important that step was until it was too late.

👀

I'll tell y'all what happened next…

BUT THAT'S PART 2.

And trust me…

you don't want to miss what happened when she actually got in my chair. 😭

To be continued… 🫣

And that’s all I’m saying… for now. 👀📖

I definitely did forget to come do story time with y'all yesterday! Definitely going to have to break it down into parts!

Coming after I am done with my client!

One thing I’ve been thinking about a LOT is how different getting your hair done felt back in the 90s.

You knew what the service was.
You knew what it included.
You knew what you were paying.
And getting your hair done could still feel accessible.

That’s the kind of energy I want to bring back. ❤️

✨ **Simple pricing.**
✨ **Quality service.**
✨ **Clear expectations.**
✨ **Family-friendly options.**
✨ **No unnecessary nickel-and-diming.**
✨ **Prices designed to respect BOTH the client and the stylist.**

But this isn't about pretending it's 1995.

I'm taking that 90s neighborhood beauty-shop spirit and rebuilding it for 2026.

Because I believe you should be able to receive quality hair care without automatically assuming that quality has to mean an outrageous price.

And I also believe hairstylists deserve to be paid fairly for their time, skill, products, knowledge, and labor.

So I'm creating a system that tries to respect BOTH sides of the chair. 🪑❤️

This is more than me changing a few prices.

I'm rethinking how I want A Higher Quality Co. to serve people.

Locs.
Natural hair.
Children's hair.
Families.
And eventually, even more.

The 90s are coming back — but with a 2026 upgrade. 😉✨

And honestly?

I think y'all are going to like this one.

Where The Service Is Astronomical 🚀

🎶 I'M BRINGING THE 90s BACK! 🎶

Not the dial-up internet 😂
Not the pagers.
Not the VHS tapes...

I’m bringing back the FEELING of getting your hair done without feeling like you just paid your whole paycheck! 💇🏽‍♀️✨

I’ve been working behind the scenes on a NEW A Higher Quality Co. service system, and I’m excited about where this is going.

Where The Service Is Astronomical 🚀

With the retirement of my chemist one thing this experience taught me as a business owner…

You are no longer dependent on one supplier.

For years, I had a team I trusted. They had been around for decades, and I had built part of my product business around what they helped me build.

Then one day, I found out they were closing.

And that changed the way I look at business.

The biggest lesson wasn’t simply "I need a new supplier.”

It was:

I need to make sure that one company's decision doesn't determine whether my business can continue.

A supplier can close.
A manufacturer can change their pricing.
A formula can be discontinued.
A company can stop carrying an ingredient or product you depend on.

None of those things are completely within your control.

What is within your control is how prepared you are when something changes.

So moving forward, I'm learning to build A Higher Quality Co. differently.

I'm looking at multiple suppliers and manufacturers.
I'm learning more about formulations and ingredients.
I'm documenting my product standards.
I'm building relationships instead of relying on just one source.

Sometimes a setback doesn't mean you're going backward.

Sometimes it's showing you what needs to be built stronger.

And that's exactly how I'm choosing to look at this chapter of A Higher Quality Co. 🤎

Where The Service Is Astronomical.

A little transparency from me… 🤎

First, I want to take a moment to say THANK YOU.

To every person who has purchased from us, shared a post, referred someone, booked a service, supported behind the scenes, encouraged me, or simply continued to follow along…

I see you. I appreciate you. And I genuinely could not have made it this far without you.

Over the years, I’ve learned that running a business isn't always about the picture perfect moments. Sometimes it’s about making difficult decisions, reassessing what you’re building, and having the courage to admit when something needs to change.

So, in the spirit of being transparent with the people who have supported me, I want to share something with you:

The Clear Your Mind Line will be coming to an end.

Once we sell out of the products currently available, we will not be restocking the line.

This decision wasn't made overnight, and it isn't something I take lightly. Clear Your Mind has been a part of my business journey, and I’m grateful for every person who trusted us enough to make it a part of theirs.

But sometimes you have to close one door to make room for what’s next.

And trust me…

There is a “what’s next.” 👀

I’m not disappearing.
I’m not giving up.
And A Higher Quality Co. is not done.

I’m simply making room for the next version of this journey one that is more intentional, more aligned, and built with the bigger vision in mind.

So if you’ve been meaning to try something from the Clear Your Mind Line, now is the time. Once it's gone, it's gone.

And if you've been following my journey, stay close. There are changes happening behind the scenes that I’m excited to eventually share with you.

Thank you for growing with me.
Thank you for being patient with me.
Thank you for supporting me through the beautiful seasons AND the complicated ones.

This isn't goodbye.

It's simply the end of one chapter.

And I have a feeling you're going to want to be here for the next one. 🤎✨
