Beauty's Buzziest Family-Run Businesses

In an industry where collaboration and partnerships are common, some of beauty's most notable businesses are making a case for the power of family ties. From siblings teaming up to parents and children building brands together, family-run businesses are on the rise.

## Fable & Mane - Sibling Duo

One such business is Fable & Mane, a holistic hair care brand founded by siblings Akash and Nikita Mehta. The idea for the brand was born from memories of their grandmother massaging and oiling Nikita's hair with a handmade blend. The pair decided to build a brand that shared Indian beauty secrets with the rest of the world.

Akash settled into a CEO role, while Nikita took on the roles of Creative Director, Storyteller, and Product Visionary. The pair also focus heavily on philanthropic ventures, with Akash founding The Fable Fund, a charitable organisation dedicated to protecting wildlife. The fund is partially funded through the brand's sales.

According to Akash, one of the best parts of working with his sister is the level of trust and understanding they have. "We know each other so well that there is very little need to over explain things, and we can be completely honest with each other," he says.

## Other Family-Run Businesses

While Fable & Mane is just one example of a family-run business making waves in the beauty industry, there are many more out there. From parents and children building brands together to couples falling in love over lab meetings, family ties are playing a key role in the success of many beauty businesses.

However, working with family can also be challenging. As Akash notes, "it is also incredibly special to be able to build something together that has such a personal connection, but it's not without its challenges." Despite these challenges, many family-run businesses are finding success and building strong relationships along the way.

## The Benefits of Family Ties

So what are the benefits of working with family in the beauty industry? For Akash and Nikita, it's the level of trust and understanding they have. "We know each other so well that there is very little need to over explain things, and we can be completely honest with each other," Akash says.

This level of trust and understanding is not unique to Fable & Mane. Many family-run businesses are finding that working with family members allows them to build strong relationships and trust, which is essential for success in the beauty industry.

## The Future of Family-Run Businesses

As the beauty industry continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see how family-run businesses adapt and grow. With more and more family-run businesses making waves in the industry, it's clear that family ties are playing a key role in the success of many beauty businesses.

Whether it's siblings teaming up or parents and children building brands together, family-run businesses are finding success and building strong relationships along the way. As Akash notes, "it's not without its challenges, but it's incredibly special to be able to build something together that has such a personal connection.
