What are “Charlotte Noire Bonnets”?

After working as a hairstylist in the Geneva area for years, Jess Cali noticed a demand from her European clients for a product with virtually no European presence. Drawing on her knowledge of and experience with American haircare, Jess Cali sought to create the first premium, artisanal hair wear in the form of luxury bonnets. With a personal commitment to the care of curly hair, Charlotte Noire Bonnets was established to meet each client’s needs and to introduce a useful and stylish product to the women of Western Europe. Jess Cali is committed to helping her clients look and feel good, even when they’re sleeping!
