so my friend and i are in the very early stages of planning to open a BSS. 
i think we lhcf ladies know the importance of product selection along with technique, so we were thinking of opening a BSS that carries a variety of products that are great for ethnic hair.
we want to stock lots of natural carrier oils, essential oils, butters, shampoos and conditioners (like HE) that aren't traditionally marketed to black consumers, relaxers, growth aids (OCT/MT, , moisturizers, combs, brushes, all the essentials that every BSS should have. i was thinking of maybe having a section devoted to dominican products, and a very special section of hair products formulated and sold by black women (like shescentit, BT, candy c's line, etc.).
we really want to keep the 100% craptastic products (like pink oil moisturizer
) out of the store, but we know that since so many black women use products that don't do much for our hair, we're going to probably have to at least stock them just to get them in the building... then we'll change their minds once they get inside 
so my question to you ladies is this:
what products/supplies would you see as essential to opening an lhcf-influenced BSS? any and every type of product and idea is sincerely welcomed!

That wasn't my intention but I guess there was a disagreement that was starting to get out of hand.
