THOM derived its name from a 2016 film project produced by Akinola Davies Jr, which celebrates the African diaspora and creates a conversation around the deep ancestral connection to Black hair and identity. 

THIS IS HUGE. 

A little bit more info:  Cyndia Harvey co-founded THOM along with artist Remi Ajani out of the need and desire to celebrate Black hair in all of its glory. The brand launched with the Scalp Serum, the single hero starter product that caters specifically to texture-rich hair. 

“Scalp care has long been part of the Black experience. A ritual enjoyed between mothers, fathers, sisters, and brothers,” Harvey states in a press release. “Using the latest advances in science, we are reinventing this ritual with a more effective solution designed to deliver exceptional results.”

We could keep on writing about how amazing this all is but quite frankly they have put it so beautifully on their website, elaborating on this serious positive shift in the industry. Take a look here.
