We had the good fortune of connecting with Dr. Elyssa Green and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Dr. Elyssa, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
Recently, Dr. Green has pivoted into a personal campaign of triumph, shaving her head to combat alopecia. Proving that she is a fighter for not only youth and creatives, she chose to take this fight to the public forum and proudly display her bald beauty and embrace the mental freedom that came with it. This health and beauty journey came with intrinsic challenges. Beyond the stares and double takes, the risk involved with showcasing bald, boss, beauty required steadfastness and determination.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Choosing to make her journey of hair loss a living lesson for all who see her, Dr. Green founded Bald Boss Beauty to advocate openly for Alopecia Awareness highlighting the areas of style, health, and education (S.H.E.). Her dedication, focus, communication, determination, openness, and loyalty to her cause, community, and creative freedom make her an invaluable asset to the world! Armed with an indomitable spirit and commitment, Dr. Elyssa Green is ready to make an impact wherever her journey takes her.
