Truth & Hair: Pioneering Hair Styling Innovation

Truth & Hair, a brand focused on hair beauty and styling, has successfully secured Rs 5.4 crore in a seed funding round spearheaded by Inflection Point Ventures (IPV). This innovative brand gained national attention by appearing on Shark Tank India Season 5, where it accepted an on-air deal offer from Varun Alagh, the co-founder of Mamaearth.

The newly acquired funds will be instrumental in enhancing Truth & Hair’s position within the hair makeup and styling market. The capital will facilitate product innovation, boost marketing initiatives, and expand the distribution network, as stated in a press release from the company.

Its diverse product range includes the Root Touch Up Hair Mascara, 3 in 1 Curly Styler, and Flyaway Wand, all engineered for various hair types, including straight, wavy, and curly.

Product Innovation

Truth & Hair prides itself on creating formulations tailored to meet the needs of different hair textures, addressing a broader audience instead of targeting a single hair type. This approach is reflected in the brand’s commitment to developing science-backed formulas that make hair styling and makeup accessible for all consumers.
