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

Hi Morgan, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
I’ve always been known for having nice hair. When I was In highschool I wore brands like Indique and True Glory. Lesser know during that time but wonderful hair. I knew after Attempting Hair school that it wasn’t for me but I wanted to stay in the hair industry.

What should our readers know about your business?
I offer luxurious raw bundles & affordable Mink lash Trays. It took me about 2 or 3 years of trial and error to get here. It was pretty hard finding reliable vendors that aren’t ASTRONOMICALLY priced. I’ve learned that everybody isn’t my demographic, even thoe it is my dream my brand won’t be for everybody. I also learned that Quality will win everytime. As a consumer, myself I love a good deal but When purchasing I love the saying buy it once. No Hair won’t last forever but being able to use hair a few years is always worth the price.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Monday: Blue Seafood great hookah drinks & all you can eat crab legs Tuesday: Taco Thursdays at LaChingada my favorite Mexican restaurant
Thursday: R & b night traffik
Friday: try a new restaurant (always a new one in Atlanta)
Saturday: shopping & club hopping
Sunday: brunch @1145 Spa land to recharge for the week ahead.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Indique and True glory inspired my love of Hair. The support of My boyfriend kept me going when I was discouraged by profitless months & being dooped by fake vendors.
The Passing of my father gave me the push to start.
My stepfather gave me all his business savvy. After running a successful Audio visual/ home security business for over 20 years.
