Jerricha Hoskins, founder and CEO of Arcani Coil Care, has transformed her life from one of adversity to one of triumph.
Once a foster child who experienced homelessness, Hoskins now leads one of the fastest-growing Black-owned hair care brands, valued at over $2 million within just two years.
Inspired by Resilience and Legacy
Motivated by the legacy of trailblazer Madam C.J. Walker, Hoskins turned personal challenges into opportunities for success. Frustrated by mainstream hair care products that didn’t meet her needs, she began formulating her own solutions.
“I wanted a better future for my kids,” Hoskins told WDTN. “So I started formulating things and just introduced it to the public.”
Her innovative approach struck a chord with customers seeking effective, authentic hair care tailored to textured hair, propelling her brand to remarkable heights.
Empowering Others Through Business
Now a mother of six, Hoskins runs Arcani Coil Care with a deeply personal mission.
She prioritizes hiring single mothers and foster youth aging out of the system, creating opportunities for individuals who share her resilient spirit. Her business doesn’t just serve customers — it uplifts her community.
A Symbol of Determination
Hoskins’ journey from foster care to CEO highlights the power of perseverance and vision.
Her story serves as an inspiration for others facing challenges, demonstrating that dreams can become reality with hard work, determination, and a commitment to giving back.
