Julissa Prado: How she created the curly hair care formula Chappell Roan and Thalía swear by

  • Summary

  • When Julissa Prado was a child, she spent several summers with her grandmother in Mexico — where she learned how to mix natural ingredients, such as lemon, sugar and aloe vera to prepare homemade remedies. She realized she could use other similar ingredients for something she had long struggled with: her curly hair. Frustrated with the lack of products in the United States to reduce frizz and provide long lasting hold for textured hair, Julissa, with the help of her brother Tony, wanted to show Latinas in the United States that having the perfect curls didn’t mean buying products heavy on sulfate, silicones or parabens. The siblings decided to create an all-natural one. Today, Rizos Curls is the first Latina-owned curly hair care brand available at all Ulta Beauty stores nationwide and the brand singer Chapell Roan uses to make her curls shine on stage. Julissa Prado joins Bísness School to tell us why it took her four years to find the perfect formula for Rizos Curls, how a natural disaster gave her the impulse to start the company, and what happened after Rizos Curls launched a collaboration with Mexican actress and singer Thalía.
