He’s responsible for some of our favorite celebrities hair moments on the red carpet. Now, Vernon Francois’ new haircare collection may help you achieve fashionable hairstyles from the comforts of your own home. Francois is the man behind the comb for Lupita Nyong’o, Serena Williams, MJ Rodriguez, and Amandla Stenberg’s natural hair. I mean, who can forget Lupita’s 2016 MET Gala hairstyle?

Clients of Francois have had the pleasure of experiencing his products firsthand. “I always use my own products during every hair styling session, as well as some other trusted brands,” Francois says. “In every case, I am constantly asking my clients questions, wanting to push things forward and innovate. At the same time, I will notice how the products are performing and interacting with different hair textures in multiple environments. I get so excited; I feel like a kid in a candy store in these moments.”
I am excited for this relaunch! As a seasoned hairstylist, I trust Francois’ hands when it comes to styling natural hair. What do you think? Would you try this collection?
