GaBBY Bows and other hair products now ship around the world and appear in retail and beauty supply stores in the US, Canada, and South Africa. Gabby participates in all aspects of the business and also hosts online “Confidence in my Hair” challenges to affirm girls and empower their parents with hair care education.
