Hey Everyone,

My name is Kisann Richardson, I founded ButtaGrow Hair Care in February 2019. Originally from the beautiful island of St.Maarten, and I moved to Orlando, Florida in June 2016. I relocated to be with my amazing husband, and my two beautiful daughters (ten and three).

Once settled in Orlando, I was fortunate enough to be able to stay at home with my amazing girls for eight months. I then realized that my youngest daughter's hair wasn't growing as fast as expected. As a family, we decided to create our own homemade hair products. After creating and testing on the myself, husband and the kids. My girls instantly fell in love with the products and within three months we already noticed hair growth. After seeing such positive results, I then decided to make a few products (hair oil and hair butter) for close friends and family to try. They too, experienced incredible results. After receiving great feedback, my family and friends encouraged me to introduce the hair products into the market. What started as a DIY for my family, turned into a business. February 2019 we introduced the hair oil, fast forward to February 2020 ButtaGrow Hair Care now offers (in addition to hair oil) Rosemary Shampoo, Rosemary Conditioner, ButtaGrow Scarves, and Hair/Body Butter.

Your questions, ANSWERED!

“Why does the company have the word 'butt' in the name?"

"What made her start the company and what motivated you"?

Here’s the real story behind the name “ButtaGrow”:

After years of mental and physical abuse in my previous relationship, the moral support of my family and friends encouraged me to have a new perspective on life for me and then only daughter. I mustered up the courage to leave, and I never looked back. I motivated myself into a stage of metamorphosis. Transforming my life from shame and misery into a healthy and loving life. Similar to a caterpillar’s life cycle, from ugly larva to beautiful butterfly.

This quote was my biggest push towards finding the light I thought no longer existed;

“The strength of a woman is not measured by the impact that all her hardships in life have had on her; but the strength of a woman is measured by the extent of her refusal to allow those hardships to dictate her and who she becomes.” -Unknown

The name ButtaGrow symbolizes not only my past, but also my growth. I never imagined that finding my happiness would have been the stepping stone of my very own Hair Care Line. We are elated to share the happiness and results with so many others.

This is a post of triumph and transformation, not for pity. I have chosen to share a part of my life I preferred to keep silent for so many years. ButtaGrow has helped me to evolve as an individual and I hope this reaches at least one person to let you know you’re never alone, and you can accomplish anything you set your mind to. This is an ode to each and every family member, friend, and stranger who has supported me and ButtaGrow, “Thank You Forevaaaa!” You ButtaGrow babes (and men) are appreciated beyond words!

Much love,

Kisann Richardson

Owner and Creator of ButtaGrow
