Taqwa Hasan has always had a love and a passion for The Arts/Fashion Design. She received her Bachelor's Degree in Fashion Merchandising from Wayne State University in 2006. Her unique and eclectic style to design was inspired by her very diverse upbringing while attending a local Muslim school in Detroit Michigan called Al-Ikhlas Training Academy. Her school inspired her to see up close and personal the beauty of other cultures including their cultural prints, fabrics, and aesthetics. All of these factors helped to shape and inspire her to become the CEO of her brand, The Black Box Collection. The company was birthed in 2019 as a way to sell a beautifully handcrafted jewelry and accessories line for the chic and eclectic woman. Taqwa loves to mix different fabrics, styles, fibers, and materials all inspired by the many different cultures to design truly one-of-a-kind pieces. Her pieces are for the woman who loves to be unique, chic, and makes a statement. When Taqwa isn't designing you can find her spending time with her family, out in nature, or attending and planning community events.

Modest Beauty henna artist, Amirah Myers
Amirah Myers is a 19-year-old young African American Muslim henna artist who makes designs on the body using the dye from the henna tree. Henna is only on the skin temporarily. Amirah taught herself and practiced on herself for many hours to develop the skills for henna artistry. She did not have a design or artistic background. Listen to her journey and see how her skills and business evolved through determination, practice, and energy.
Amirah attends Towson University as a sophomore majoring in criminal justice and she plans on being a behavioral analyst for criminal investigations within the federal government with a background in law and forensics. Amirah enjoys painting, connecting with young children, and giving attention to things that involve self-care.
Amirah says "I’m just a young girl, who’s currently embarking on a journey in which I find that I will never grow as a person as an artist if I’m comfortable with where I’m at. And doing henna has helped me realize that being comfortable is a beautiful thing but nothing will come from it and that if I want to grow I must be willing to be uncomfortable."
