The Story Behind A TUK

Every woman wants to look, feel, and be confident, strong, comfortable, proud, happy, peaceful, and beautiful no matter their circumstances.

One of the things that make us feel all of the above is our hair.

I don’t know about you, but for me, I don’t always have time to get my hair done or even afford to get it done every month, especially with our current economy.

As a single working mum and business owner with five children, I need something to make me feel confident when I am leaving my house in a hurry.

Something that doesn’t take me much time to do,Something that doesn’t cost me too much money every month.

In 2022, I hosted a pop-up shop at Stockland Shopping Center, and 6% of my customers who bought my turbans were women who were going through chemotherapy.

When I was planning to create headwear, specifically turbans, I thought about how these products would bring support to women in their time of need, but what I didn’t realize was how many women in chemotherapy needed this product.

During that time, I had many family members, friends, and supporters who came and bought one or two of these hats to support their loved ones. I had a woman buy two turbans for her 12-year-old daughter who was in chemotherapy, and she knew three friends who bought these hats, either for themselves or for their loved ones.

I had one woman tell me that she went through treatment a couple of years back, and she said there aren't many options available for headwear catering to women in chemotherapy. I aimed to change some of that by introducing these bright, colorful 100% African cotton turbans.

They are reversible and easy to put on.
As a woman, we have time for everyone else but not ourselves.
When I have to drop off the kids at school and be at work by 9 am, all I need is an African colorful 100% cotton headwear to feel great whenever I leave the house.
These products save you money, as we are all struggling with our economy at the moment.

They are made with 100% cotton and are reversible.

Our colorful, comfortable, and 100% cotton caps can bring you a bit of comfort while supporting your loved ones with a gift that they need.

Feel free to let me know if you need help.
