About Us
Ann Denson-Willis, Entrepreneur / CEO of A Determined Woman, Inc. located in Birmingham, AL. Ann created My Hairdo Pillow with black women in mind.
For Ann, it was important to find a way for women to be able to sleep comfortably, while maintaining their fresh salon hairstyle. Four years ago, Ann was treated with severe bursitis in her elbow and shoulder due to awkward sleeping positions while trying to maintain her hairstyle. This led to Ann finding a “better” way to sleep without discomfort to the neck, arm or shoulder all the while maintaining the hairstyle. The idea for My Hairdo Pillow came to her in a dream – to fashion the pillow in the way that worked best for her – sleeping on her arm and elbow.
Ann is also a Certified Massage Therapist; she wanted to be sure that the pillow would give proper neck alignment, as well. She turned to Dr. Morgan Wood, a Chiropractor in Homewood, AL who evaluated the pillow, stated, “The therapeutic design of My Hairdo Pillow gives the head, neck and shoulder the support it needs for a good sleeping posture”.
The pillow is designed with the elbow and arm in mind. The elbow shape of our pillow mimics the natural sleep position, comfortably cradling the face, chin, neck and shoulder. My Hairdo Pillow is small and can be used with your favorite pillow. Our pillow elevates the hair off the sleep surface, eliminating that “laid on”, “flattened” look to the hairstyle. My Hairdo Pillow allows curls to relax in place rather than unravel or dishevel.
The pillows are made of a soft fleece fabric that feels good next to the face and they feature soft, yet firm foam density for your comfort. By using My Hairdo Pillow:
You Will Sleep Your BEST
And
Worry LESS About Your Hairdo Being
A MESS!
