Stephenetta (isis) Harmon is a Black beauty editor, advocate, curator, and communications consultant. She has more than 20 years of editorial and digital media experience, not only covering and creating stories that celebrate the power, impact, and business of Black beauty, but also helping to build the digital platforms on which they thrive.
Her previous work includes serving as editor-in-chief for Minnesota’s oldest Black newspaper, the Minnesota Spokesman-Recorder, and serving as both a senior web producer and a contributing writer for UPTOWN and VIBE/VIBE Vixen publications.
She also served as the sole digital editor for Hype Hair for half a decade, where she helped to increase the brand’s reach and presence within the beauty space, as well as expand conversations around the politics and business of Black hair and beauty.
This led her to develop Sadiaa Black Beauty Guide, the premier directory and digital platform to specifically connect, celebrate, and increase awareness of Black-owned hair and beauty brands, and BlackBeautyWire.com, a portal for Black beauty news.
She now serves as digital media director for Hype Hair and as Black beauty director for Sadiaa. She also provides consulting and media development services via her boutique PR firm, Klade Group.
