Meet Our CEO
Cherlyn M. Carby is the visionary behind Skylar J's LushUs Kids, serving as its Founder and CEO. With over 20 years of combined expertise in the Legal and Finance Industry, she has proven herself as a skilled and accomplished professional. However, it was her role as a working mom that brought her face-to-face with a pressing challenge.
Struggling to find kid-friendly products that would be gentle on her daughter, Ryan Skylar's hair, Cherlyn experienced firsthand the difficulties of caring for a child with scalp sensitivity. Ryan suffered from red, itchy patches, soreness, and even hair loss due to scalp psoriasis during her infancy. Despite exhaustive searches, Cherlyn couldn't find a consistent, gentle, and non-toxic solution to address her daughter's condition.
Driven by a mother's love and determination, Cherlyn made the life-changing decision to take matters into her own hands. She embarked on a journey to develop her own hair care products, with a clear focus on bringing nutrition and health to children's natural hair during their formative years. Drawing inspiration from the nourishing properties of Caribbean fruits and botanical extracts, she created a product line free from harsh chemicals, embodying pure gentleness for every child's precious crown. Within an impressive six-month span, Cherlyn brought LushUs Kids to the marketplace, offering a range of hair care products that parents could trust.
However, Cherlyn's aspirations go beyond just providing exceptional hair care products. She firmly believes that education extends far beyond the confines of a classroom. In her dedication to empowering aspiring entrepreneurs, she has taken the initiative to establish an internship program at her Start-Up company. Proactively seeking out individuals with an interest in starting their own business one day, Cherlyn offers them the invaluable opportunity to intern and learn the ins and outs of entrepreneurship under her mentorship.
Through her passion, resilience, and commitment to both her family and the wider community, Cherlyn M. Carby stands as an inspirational figure in the business world. By addressing a genuine need with compassion and expertise, she has not only built a thriving enterprise but also created a platform for nurturing future entrepreneurial talents.
