How It Began
In the early 2000s, my mother, Natasha Anderson-Imara, had the undesirable chore of taking down her braids and the braids six girls in family. After two days of taking down our braids with a rat tail comb, that would often break, my mother began thinking, "There has to be a faster way of taking down braids." From this experience, the idea of The Original UnBraider was born.
My mother began working with engineers over nine months to develop a model comb to take down multiple braids, making it faster and easier without damaging your natural hair. After testing five proto-types she created- The Original UnBraider- a comb that would take down 4 to 8 braids at once, minimizing breakage. The comb, now The Original Unbraider, met and exceeded her expectation and was launched for sale to the public in 2005.
