YL X MH
YOVANKA LORIA X MOURNING HAIR
USA Collaboration rooted in shared standards
Yovanka Loria and Anianne Rivera came together with one goal: to empower stylists by offering hair that reflects both quality and conscience. Yovanka's deep expertise in Micro-Tied Wefts and her years of experience sourcing, testing, and perfecting hair helped lay the groundwork for Mourning Hair - guiding everything from choosing trusted factories to refining the standards we now hold.
We've each built our businesses by putting stylists first, and that's exactly why this collaboration made sense. With an expanded range of textures and tones, this partnership is about raising expectations without compromising your artistry or your clients trust. Together, we're delivering performance, integrity, and real solutions that help you protect your reputation behind the chair.
Embracing Natural Beauty
Our shared commitment to ethical sourcing, meticulous selection, and gentle processing allows us to offer hair that performs naturally and lasts. Unlike chemically treated extensions that lose their shine, YL x MH Hair blends effortlessly with your natural texture - beautiful, natural textures that are built to last.
We've teamed up together because we're stronger together. We're proving you don't have to sacrifice quality or integrity to succeed and you don't have to sell out to corporate structures that put profit before people.
This collaboration is for those who believe in something real. Stylists and clients who value honesty, artistry and transformations that feel just as good as it looks, naturally.
Ani and I are both so passionate about making everyone feel included, because beauty isn't just what's on the outside. It's energy, confidence and how you make people feel. We love celebrating individuality, thinking outside the box, and most of all - to be surrounded with good humans.
More Than just hair
It's confidence
The YL x MH Collaboration goes beyond hair — it’s about confidence, empowerment, and inner transformation.
This collaboration was built to restore faith in an industry that's lost a little of its truth. You won't feel let down here. We genuinely stand behind everything we do because we're still in it. We're both working on clients, teaching, running our businesses and showing up as the voice of reason... without the BS.
Through education, both together and on our own platforms, we welcome all stylists to learn from both of us. With over 30 years of combined experience, we've seen every pitfall in this industry, from unregulated factory processing to manipulation and marketing that disguises poor-quality hair as "premium".
Because when you blend artistry with authenticity, you don't just change hair. You change confidence, trust and the standard of what's possible.
EDUCATION COLLABORATION
Whether you're just starting out in the extension world or ready to refine your craft, YL x Mourning Hair Education is where skill meets purpose. Together, we've created an education experience designed to help you amplify what's already working and turn it into something the market can't ignore. You'll learn how to develop a distinct signature result that makes clients seek you out, long before they compare the alternatives.
Our mission is to help you elevate your expertise to a premium, in-demand level, becoming the trusted authority in your niche. You'll attract the right clients and not through noise or hype, but through undeniable skill, authenticity and confidence. Even if you're not loud on social media, you'll learn how to build a thriving, purpose-driven business on your own terms, one that reflects your values and rewards you for the high-level work you deliver.
We're so blessed to have met and taught incredible stylists around the world, and we're just getting started. We'll be continuing our joint global collab classes, so keep your eyes peeled, because we're only going bigger from here.
Education without ego. Mastery without mainstream.
