II. The Diversity of Curls and Developing Authentic Multicultural Influencer Marketing (11:35am-12:15pm ET)
In a category still segregated by ethnicity and a lack of diversity in both product and talent, hair care brands struggle to create authentic connections with their consumers. As a general market brand targeted to curly hair, Maui Moisture has struggled to fit in the boxes prescribed by category leaders, but has found a way to authentically connect with consumers and influencers through a truly multicultural influencer strategy. Learn how the team set out to show the world that curly hair comes in all shapes, sizes, and colors and not one level of moisture fits all with their Diversity of Curls campaign and the creation of the Maui Moisture Curl Squad.
