L’Oreal USA has signed an agreement to acquire Carol’s Daughter, the beauty brand known for its natural hair care products.

Carol’s Daughter joins Urban Decay, Essie, NYX, and Maybelline NY on L’Oreal USA’s extensive roster of beauty brands.

Price and her team will continue to operate out of their NYC headquarters.

The agreement is subject to the regulatory approvals.
