Merian Odesho is the founder and chief formulator of woman-owned haircare brand Bounce Curl.
It offers a wide range of products which cater specifically to curly, wavy and coily hair types and offers styling through traditional sources of hair nutrition such as flax seeds and aloe.
While she was pursuing her Bachelor of Science degree in her early 20s, she began to develop an interest in the hair industry, she explains, “I really love the chemistry and how the process moves from individual ingredients to finished product.”
She later began to volunteer and work in a laboratory where she started to formulate her own gels. The endless days in the lab where she tirelessly worked to mix acids, analyzing bacteria and reading the IR spectrum led to the creation of her first and most popular product, the “Bounce Curl Light Creme Gel”
The secret to Bounce Curl’s success is a unique blend of natural ingredients like black seed oil, essential oils, and extensive testing to update any products using the green chemistry principles.
Merian is devoted to working up close and personal with each product she creates and is passionate about sourcing their ingredients from top-of-the-line manufacturers and testing each product for quality control.
Looking back at her journey, she recalls, “I started working in the cosmetic industry in 2010. At that time, cosmetic chemists were old school and still using bad preservatives and cancer-causing ingredients in their formulas.
I was already working as a micro-influencer on social media; I connected with potential consumers online and knew what they wanted.
The main concept is not too surprising – create products that do not have cancer-causing ingredients in them! Also, create products that do not have extremely toxic ingredients in them either!
Here is a list of ingredients we do not use: Silicones, Parabens, Sulfates, PEG’s, DEA/MEA, Propylene Glycol, Formaldehydes, Phthalates, Animal Testing & JUNK. Bounce Curl products are Color Safe & Vegan.
This list will continue to grow as scientists keep discovering toxic contaminants. In addition, we are Cruelty-Free and you can find Bounce Curl listed on the PETA website confirming that we do NOT test on animals.”
