Founder & CEO

Rachel Blistein

At Original Moxie®, our business is personal. It started in 2009 with Rachel Blistein’s quest to understand and heal her dry, damaged curls. Her kitchen chemistry experiments led her to create a full line of natural hair care products, each one designed to meet the needs of specific hair types. After launching her business, she embarked upon a 4-year study that included over 1,000 individuals. The data she collected on Curl Pattern, Shape, Porosity, and Texture allowed her to identify characteristic patterns, which took shape as Hair Type Personalities™ and became the basis for our professional guide to Moisture Balancing,™ a science-based approach to optimizing hair health.
