Shakita Tucker, founder and creator of the Washington, D.C.-based hair accessory line, Fibs and Fables.
When it comes to embracing inclusivity and the power of women, one thing comes to mind = hair. For Shakita Tucker, Fibs and Fables is more than just turning heads with its glamorous lineup of hair clips and gilded headbands. Shakita, a former art history college dropout, now full-time entrepreneur, says her business idea stems from the natural hair movement, hoping to reinvigorate how Black women can find beauty in their hair — no matter how curly, textured or “ugly” our society depicts it to be.
The trendy statement-driven accessory brand recently unveiled its second collection since its inception in 2019. The emerging statement-driven brand is inspired by mythology, fables and folklore – each piece emanating and evoking the story of the untold, or a powerful woman like their popular collection here.
