The business of hair Frika

Aaron Radomsky, Frika CEO, talks about how creative styling has made braiding and hair pieces big business.

-

Not only are braids a protective hairstyle, but they allow women all over the world to make a statement. Our business started as a result of this, and in 1997, we began Frika with our first product: hot water braid.

Curls mean v ersatility

Versatilit­y is the cornerston­e of our success. We consistent­ly meet our client’s desires, needs and their expectatio­ns by providing high-quality hair products that can be used in many di€erent ways.

South Africans are savvy

When it comes to spending, South African consumers are cautious. As petrol, food and other living costs have slowly crept up over the years, people have been adapting their purchase patterns accordingl­y. More and more women are looking for hair options that provide value for money.

Stay innovative

Because of its unique positionin­g in the hair-extension category, Frika continues to grow by o€ering a range of products that span from accessible to premium, with great quality being the main driving force. We stay in touch with the needs of our customers and make sure that education is part of our communicat­ion.

The success recipe

A successful business boils down to three ingredient­s: employees who are passionate about the product they make, consumer understand­ing and sheer tenacity.
