Meet the Patented PuffCuff Hair Clamp
Say goodbye to hair tie headaches! Secure curly or textured hair pain-free and damage-free. Empowering natural beauty for all.
Project Description
Our mission is to champion self-love and self-acceptance by empowering people with curly and textured hair to embrace their natural beauty through pain-free, damage-free styling solutions.
Traditional hair ties and claw clamps cause tension, headaches, and hair damage, especially for those with curly and textured hair. Despite 65% of the world’s population having curly and textured hair, there’s a lack of products designed specifically for these hair types.
The global Hair Accessories Market is projected to reach $47 billion by 2028. With 65% of the population having curly and textured hair and millions embracing their natural texture for a healthier lifestyle and current trends, the market for effective, damage-free accessories is vast and underserved. We’re targeting this significant segment of individuals with thick, curly hair.
PuffCuff is a patented hair clamp designed specifically for curly and textured hair. It allows people to achieve the same styles as traditional hair ties but without the tension, headaches, or hair damage, offering a comfortable and stylish alternative.
Our immediate goal is to raise $50K for new packaging, inventory, and rent. Ultimately, we need to raise $560K, with $100K already secured, to scale production, expand our product line, support operations, and build a strong team. Your support will help us reach more people and ensure PuffCuff’s continued growth and success.
