Headbands for Heroes
Lindsay Tia is a fighter. She’s a female small business owner, and owns a boutique in Dorchester called Shop the Cue. She’s a designer, and has designed stunning purses and accessories. She’s the creator of the Bravery Brand, a brand that honors our military heroes with bracelets and patriotic bags. I love everything about this girl and I’m so proud of her new venture called Headbands for Heroes.
The idea came to Lindsay because she saw many posts and pictures of nurses with markings on their faces due to the masks they were wearing all day long. Over time they become so tight around your ears and they cause a lot of pain. Lindsay found inspiration from the internet and these nurses, and started sewing fabric together to make headbands with buttons right behind the ears. Because of the buttons on the headband, nurses, doctors, and anyone wearing a mask can put the elastic over the buttons and NOT over their ears, relieving the backs of their ears from a lot of pain.
Lindsay has been sharing pictures of people in the headbands and you can see how happy they are to have these items. She and a small team of sewers are working around the clock and pulling all resources they have to make headbands for heroes. So many people are purchasing these bands at $5 each that the only way to keep up with the demand is to make 500/day available on www.shopthecue.com. Help this small business and community today!
