Rethinking an Everyday Beauty Essential

Slaystainable

An everyday beauty product can reveal who a market has forgotten to design for.

Damaris (Koi) Munyua created Slaystainable to rethink the traditional wig cap. Her concept focused on eco-friendliness, durability, comfort, and a wider range of colors that could better match different skin tones, while giving customers an at-home alternative to more expensive professional installation.

She planned to use the award to address early startup needs such as intellectual-property work, materials, and the steps required to prepare the product for market.

What your support made possible:

A Spirit of Entrepreneurship Award providing early funding and recognition to help Damaris continue developing Slaystainable.

Because of you... Damaris received an early vote of confidence and resources to keep testing what Slaystainable might become.
