Impacting Black Hair Culture for Seven Decades ft. Bernard and James Bronner of Bronner Bros.
Today, I’m chatting with Bernard and James Bronner, who are a part of the legendary Bronner Bros. family. The brand’s history dates back to 1947 when Dr. Nathaniel Bronner, Sr., his brother, Arthur Bronner, Sr., and their sister, Emma Bronner, began teaching cosmetologists at the Butler Street YMCA in Atlanta, Georgia.
In the years that followed, Bronner Bros. became known for iconic hair products like SuperGro and their International Beauty Show, which is usually based in Atlanta. Bronner Bros. is one of those brands that is so connected to Black culture and Black beauty culture. My mom and her sister used the products, and then my mom used them on me as a kid. So, needless to say, it was a pleasure to chat with James and Bernard Bronner and learn more about the company’s seven-decade history.
During our conversation, we chat about the brand’s roots in Atlanta, the business and life lessons they learned watching their father grow the business, and what to expect from the next generation of their family. Tune in to hear from the Bronner Bros., and I hope you enjoy the episode.
