Ep 13: Be Consistent and DO IT w/Stephanie Ayler
Stephanie Ayler is the founder and creator of Nourish and Love Company. Stephanie is a veteran( albeit, a more quieter veteran) in the natural hair game. Having been a part of the Natural Hair Community before it was even a community, before youtube, twitter, and instagram! When online forums is all that we had, if you can picture that! Her passion for cosmetics and hair care began at a young age, from reading shampoo and conditioner bottle labels that she would find in the bathroom to getting trouble in elementary school for braiding her classmates hair. Stephanie’s natural hair journey began at age 15 after a disaster relaxer situation but her love for creating products to solve problems didn’t begin until years later. Stephanie graduated from VIrginia State University in 2008 with a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Visual Communication with a head full of locs. While in school, she made products to care for her locs and to keep them healthy. Two years later she would COMB OUT those locs and the real journey began. Nourish and Love Company with birthed in 2010 when Stephanie made whipped body butter and a healing salve for her dog. It was with these two products along with inspiring stories of Lisa Price, Miko Branch, Jane Carter, that she realized that “Hey I can do this too”. With a deep passion, an insatiable curiosity and a purpose to provide amazing products, Stephanie began a blog where she detailed her journey and her brand with a mission to enrich, empower, and educate. That blog has since transformed and evolved into what you see now. Nourish and Love Company; a spa-inspired company providing handmade, quality hair care products for highly textured hair.
