CASHMERE HAIR

Rachel and Melissa had an instant connection from the first day they met and have been like sisters ever since. With a serious passion for beauty, hair and helping other women feel gorgeous, they created their luxury clip-in hair extensions brand right in the heart of Beverly Hills. Rachel was a model in Los Angeles and Melissa was a successful celebrity hairstylist working in several Beverly Hills high-end salons. The friends couldn’t find any clip in hair extensions that were great. Only mediocre from local hair shops, or handmade ones.

Rachel & Melissa began to make their own hair extensions, sewing on clips, designing the track placement that looked the most natural, even mixing colors of hair to customize it just right. Everywhere they went they received so many compliments on their hair. Which was surprising because it was just “clip-in” extensions, not their real hair. The girls began working together to find a source for the best hair, they designed an amazing range of shades to match, and voilà! Cashmere Hair was born.
