Our afro picks were designed to speak to the culture. Honoring and preserving its history as not only a grooming tool, but as symbolic wearable art.
At the heart of Riot Picks is fashion model, Janaye Furman. As a model who traveled around the world she faced plenty of racism, discrimination, under representation, and misrepresentation throughout her career. After making history as the first black woman to open a Louis Vuitton show in the fashion house's 163 year history, an afro pick gifted to her by her mother quickly became her staple. The pick gave her a platform to have important conversations about the black experience, culture and identity. Now she wants her picks to be a platform for you.
