”All Shades Covered is a beauty retailer for black women who have been under-served. Given this, it is at our core to be diverse and inclusive in the way we market, hire and raise funds from. It would be impossible to build my business without this kind of proactive strategy and a
diverse team who represent my consumers. ”
