BOBSA/EBHA

**EBHA Enterprise of Black Hair Alliance** was created to allow B.O.B.S.A. to reach out to the Korean and Chinese markets, which are valuable parts of the black hair care industry. Bobsa took a trip to China in 2015 to establish this partnership. So, when you see the Bobsa logo connected to EBHA, you know that these products and services have been approved and sanctioned by the Bobas network.

It’s important to note that over the last 40 years, merchandise imported by Koreans and Chinese has not been sold directly to the black hair care industry, which is a consumer of all the black products that come into the U.S. Therefore, by establishing EBHA, Bobsa provides a definitive role in controlling merchandise such as human hair, braiding hair, and other products manufactured by the asian market
