Salem Berhane (she/her) opened a natural hair and beauty service salon in the middle of a flippin' pandemic, and shows no signs of slowing down, in business or in creativity. Gio and Renée had a great time chatting with Salem who share her wisdom from starting a braiding business at home to opening IncluSV Beauty Solutions as a storefront; why hair is so important in Black community and culture; a future in which Black-owned businesses are leading the hair industry; and why calling cornrows "Kardashian boxer braids" is absolutely wrong. You can email [email protected] for more information about Salem or to request an appointment if you live in Windsor, ON, and follow @inclusvbeauty on Instagram and Facebook to see more of Salem's work!
