Update Your Hairstyles With Remy Dynasty: Brother-Sister Duo Hair Business
Remy Dynasty is a hair company offering quality hair extensions to women to want to change their hairstyles from here and there. The company started in late 2017 and has grown remarkably as they are currently selling products in the Caribbean, particularly the Bahamas. The company was created by two siblings, Job and Emanise Timothee.
Job, the CEO, one day had a plan to start a business but was not sure where to begin. At that time, his side gig aside from his primary profession, Computer Engineering, was snow-remover in the state of New York where he lives. He would knock outdoors to shovel snow for a small fee and did that couple for a couple of weeks. Then, he racked-up about $300. From now, he knew that was enough to start his business, though he had no idea of the products.
After consulting with his sister Emanise, they came up with the idea of reselling hair extensions where they would buy from a wholesaler and sell at affordable prices. The ordered samples from wholesale companies ensuring that they were buying the right products. They check for the hair quality and texture.
They went around to understand how women style their hair, how they change their hairstyles, and what kind of hair they use as extensions.
They used social media first to test the products in the market. From then, they received quite a few requests from social media users. Then they set up an online store allowing customers to understand a variety of hair extensions so that they can choose their products more efficiently. Job Timothee also builds the site.
Most of their customers come from Nassau, Bahamas. Though UPS and Amazon do not deliver there, they ship the products to Miami, and from Miami, they use air shipping to deliver to Nassau.
The products are delivered along with accessories and other items as a token of appreciation to their customers. “I create the box to make sure I pack the products with a human touch” stated Emanise.
“As a first generation Haitian living in the U.S., it is very challenging for me. We don’t have the opportunities that many others have. Our people are closed-minded. There is a lack of support from our own when you will find strangers that will support you with your business” stated Emanise.
Emanise has always served as an inspiration for his brother whenever he wants to give up.
Emanise envisions to make Remy Dynasty more than it is today. She ended her interview with few words of advice and wisdom.
Advice to young Haitian living outside of Haiti: Even if you don’t have money you can start somewhere. Proving to others that if you can do it than everyone else can. Think outside the box. Talk to your friends for advice. No matter where you come from you can make it.
Advice for those in Haiti: You don’t have to be somewhere for destiny to work. Inspiration is all around you. You don’t have to travel elsewhere to make it. God has a plan for everyone everywhere. Your destiny is within. You have to find your light. God gives you a brain for a reason. Be a leader in your field.
Advice to the Haitian Community: we need to come together to empower each other. You never know what somebody is going through. Haitians don’t socialize, but it’s time to show some support, and support each other. We can inspire each other. Create events to meet others.
Emanise lives by this motto: “All you need is a prayer, a plan, and a push.”
In the next few years, they hope to expand the brand everywhere, for more people to know about Remy Dynasty, and bring different businesses under Remy Dynasty’s brand.
