ABOUT ISFAHAN CHAMBERS-HARRIS
Who would ever think that a career in medical science would lead to the creation of a haircare brand? While completing my postdoctoral fellowship at Vanderbilt School of Medicine, conducting research on the autoimmune disease Sarcoidosis ( which primarily affects Black women), I realized that there was a connection between the toxic ingredients in beauty products and disease pathogenesis.This made me take a hard look at my situation as I was suffering from a damaged scalp, breakage, and dryness to my hair from years of chemical relaxer use. What started as an experiment in the kitchen, after deciding to go natural, is now Alodia, a highly successful organic and natural hair and scalp care brand with a cult-like following that has been featured in Essence.com, Elle, Refinery29, Forbes, Byrdie, and VISA, just to name a few. Launching Alodia to the masses has been a defining moment in my life and it brings me immense joy when hear from or read they many reviews of how Alodia has helped relieve someone\'s chronic scalp condition or made them fall in love with their hair. When I\'m not busy creating products, conducting hair and scalp consultations as a Hair Specialist in Trichology or facilitating workshops, I can also be found chasing my twin boys and 8 month old son with my husband, Dr. Rashad DuPree Harris, MD in our Washington D.C. area home.
