We are fire kissed by the sun, rooted in melanin, crowned in flame. Iva Wilson is the founder and creator of GingerNoir, a NYC-based cultural and community platform launched in 2019 to celebrate the rare and radiant beauty of natural Black redheads. As a Black ginger herself, Iva Wilson created GingerNoir to uplift and connect those who often go unseen in mainstream beauty spaces. Through storytelling, visual art, and curated events, she continues to build a vibrant community that honors the identity, culture, and confidence of Black redheads across the globe.
