When Rachel Nixon loses her job for not conforming to the traditional stylist image, she makes a bold decision. With no money, no business experience, and no guidance, she opens her own salon.

Demoralized and despondent, a message from her late grandmother grabs Rachel’s attention:

“Go to China. You're going to start a hair company.”

The rest is history.
