This work aims to understand how the attitudes of the clients of Instituto de Beleza Natural (a beauty salon that specializes in afro textured hair) have been fostered. It focuses particularly on the development of positive attitudes regarding the services offered by the Instituto Beleza Natural in order to explain the Instituto’s commercial success. It was decided that the best method to adopt for this research was to undertake several in depth interviews with clients of the Instituto. This approach enabled the researcher to identify themes related not only to the stimuli for using the services offered, but also to pin point the restrictions to them. The results show a significant amount of themes related to attitude, such as the wish for a different sort of hair, hair that won’t grow longer, prejudice at school, neat hair helps to find a job, it helps self-esteem, it attracts the boys’ eyes, and so on. All the themes were analyzed and associated to the problems according to the method suggested by Guerra (2006). The main problems (such as financial difficulties to undergo the treatment at the Beleza Natural, the people who were excluded from it and the ones who scorn it ) are analyzed in the perspective of managerial implications. Some of these implications may be of value for other businesses with similar problems. They may also help those that target catering for the needs of low income clients.
