Oh Natural t-shirts aren't just about the hair.
Me with my daughter, Zoë.
Inspiration can be found in many places. In this case, it was my daughter, Zoë. One day about three years ago, she told me that she wanted hair just like her friend's hair -- bone straight, un-crinkly, everything her hair wasn't. The fact that she didn't like her hair broke my heart, but motivated me to do something.
I took a silk screening class through the local community college (something I had always wanted to do since first being introduced to it in high school). That's where I created the first prototypes for my t-shirts. I designed and drew each Oh Natural t-shirt design by hand. But it's the fact that I also "hid" Zoë's name into the hairstyle on each of my original t-shirt designs that makes them special to me. Zoë represents the beauty we all have and sometimes can't see. My t-shirts send a positive message and make you feel hip, cool, funky, and stylish. Even on bad hair days.
Today, Zoë is 6 years old, loves her hair and the many ways she can wear it, and is so proud that "her" t-shirts are being worn by people who really like them.
Enjoy Zoë's t-shirts, wear them often, and tell your friends.
