How did Madam CJ Walker discover her hair products?

Answer 1

Madam C.J Walker claimed that a man appeared to her in a dream and told her how to make a product to cure baldness. She also experimented with other products already on the market. She was not the first person to create hair care products for black women. Obviously women in ancient Africa, Egypt, Greece, Rome, the Middle East and Asia had been styling their hair and using their own concoctions for centuries before Madam Walker was born.
