    It's Giving Tuesday!! At amika we believe in lifting up the people who shape our industry from behind the chair and beyond it. Stylists are often the first touchpoint for confidence, creativity, and community. They are culture shapers and industry builders. That is why EVERY US purchase made today supports our Friend to Hair Scholarship which provides six future stylists with full rides to cosmetology school!! This scholarship is one of the ways we invest directly in the next generation of talent and help remove the financial barriers that keep too many aspiring stylists from entering the field. Our commitment to the next generation of hair care leaders runs deep. We invest in stylists. We invest in emerging founders. We invest in the future of beauty. Each of these touchpoints represents our belief that community is at the heart of everything we do. This program reflects our belief that talent exists everywhere and everyone deserves an opportunity to thrive. I am grateful to the team members who help bring this vision to life and to everyone who joins us by shopping with purpose today. Together we are helping open doors for the next wave of beauty professionals who will shape our industry for years to come. www.loveamika.com cc: Amanda G. Demi R.

    Last night, amika kicked off our third Rooted in Growth cohort! Rooted in Growth is amika’s flagship program dedicated to increasing equity in the beauty industry by supporting the next generation of founders with capital, mentorship, and community. Over the next four months, our founders will receive 1:1 mentorship from amika leadership, take part in group learning sessions, and gain invaluable insights during our Conversations with a CEO series, where industry leaders share real, unfiltered advice about building impactful, enduring brands. We kicked things off last night with a friendly pitch competition and an inspiring Conversations with a CEO featuring amika CEO + Founding Member Chelsea Riggs and Chief Marketing Officer Nilofer Vahora, moderated by award-winning journalist Kayla A. Greaves. As I shared in my opening remarks: “amika is Esperanto for friend and we’re serious about friendship, which is why we’re all here tonight. Rooted in Growth is one of the ways we activate that friendship in action, supporting emerging founders as they continue to build the future of beauty.” Each brand in this cohort will also receive a $50,000 grant to fuel their growth and impact. Please join us in celebrating our 2025–2026 Rooted in Growth cohort: 💜 @Monica Stevens from Mo Knows Hair 🧡 Stefan L. Miller, MBA from Young King Hair Care 💖 Nikita Charuza from SQUIGS 💛 @Adey Olaoluwa from The Frontal Queen We can’t wait to learn, grow, and create lasting impact together. Congratulations to our incredible founders! 🎉 Grateful to work on this impactful initiative alongside the amazing Bailey V. + Michelle Han #amika #lifeatamika #amikameansfriend #RootedInGrowth #AllHairIsWelcome

    frizz me not just got crowned one of People en Español's Star Products of 2025 (+ we’re flipping our silky, frizz-free hair over it 💁♀️✨). it's no wonder why they're obsessed. this heat-activated spray is like a silk shield for your strands (sans sticky vibes), sealing in shine + softness while sending frizz on permanent vacation, no matter your hair type 💅 huge thanks to the People en Español team for the love! 🧡 Pilar Sopeséns Izuel read the round-up: https://lnkd.in/gsEkUrEg
