Episode Synopsis

Send us a text My guest today is Taryn Gill, South African entrepreneur and founder of haircare brands such as The Perfect Hair, Curls in Bloom, and the trademarks SuperCurl and Soft Sista. Taryn’s story is a true masterclass on how to manage your career, spot opportunities and using your experiences for business success. She has worked for some of the greatest names in SA publishing and media. She’s an alumna of the business reality show, Shark Tank, and the high priestess of a community built around her first brand, The Perfect Hair. We caught up at a time when South Africa was starting to reckon with the riots that shook the country after  former president Jacob Zuma was arrested (story linked below in the mentions). The country was also in the middle of yet another hard Covid lockdown. Mind you, while all of this was going on, she was also in the middle of finalizing a partnership with a local distributor and hosting Taryn’s Table Talk, a series of important conversations about natural hair under the auspices of her own brand, @curlsbytarynMentioned In this EpisodeSouth African RiotsSowetanTownship EconomicsJustice MalalaDawn RobertsonPhumzile Mlambo-NgcukaJane RaphaelySupport the showNEWSLETTER, stay in the loop and subscribe to our newsletterSUPPORT this work so that we can keep it free.
