The Thompson sisters are recognized for their reputation of having “magic hair-growing hands” and debunking the myth that black women and men *can’t* have long, healthy hair. They’ve made it not only their expertise but passion to help black women’s and men’s hair reach its greatest potential in both strength and length through the Healthy Hair Program and 5-Step Healthy Hair Care System product line.
The DreamGirls product line was released at the start of COVID-19 and helped provide hair care solutions to everyone. DreamGirls have sold over $1M of products within the first 6 months, their customers were blown away by the results and the Healthy Hair Care System became a viral online sensation because of the results customers were seeing. www.dghair.com
