Target spruces up hair care assortment with launch of Miss Jessie’s, among others

Target has expanded its hair care assortment to include African American salon products never before offered at mass.  Now available at select Target stores and Target.com, the new offerings include Miss Jessie’s, CURLS, The Jane Carter Solution, and the Target exclusive SheaMoisture.  This expansion further delivers on the retailer’s Expect More. Pay Less™ brand promise while providing guests with convenient access to the brands they know and trust.

“By offering an accessible assortment of salon-quality brands and everyday essentials, Target is the destination for guests’ beauty needs,” said Keri Jones, senior vice president, merchandising, Target.  “With the introduction of Miss Jessie’s and other new launches, our guests will now find more of the products they want, need and trust.”

Boutique Brand Miss Jessie’s

The heart of the hair care expansion at Target is the launch of the Miss Jessie’s® product line at mass.  Known throughout the hair care industry and favored by celebrities including Alicia Keys, The Roots, Holly Robinson Peete and Randy Jackson, Miss Jessie’s is considered the go-to product line for curls and waves.  Initially developed to manage the curl of African American hair, Miss Jessie’s products have since found a strong fan base among people of all backgrounds looking to enhance curly hairstyles.

“Words cannot express how proud we are to see Miss Jessie’s at Target as it gives our products the national platform we’ve always dreamed of,” said Miko Branch, co-founder, Miss Jessie’s. “When my sister and I were young, our paternal grandmother – the original Miss Jessie – would create formulas to manage our curls.  These products were inspired by her passion and love of beauty and we can’t wait to share it with Target guests far and wide.”
