Interview with Britta Cox
Britta Cox is Founder of Aquis and co-founder of K18. In 1990, Britta Cox decided there had to be a better, healthier way to dry your hair. One that didn’t include using a bulky, friction-causing bath towel. With her ski industry background, knowledge of sports fiber technology, and an entrepreneurial mindset, she set out to find a fabric that alleviated the annoyance she experienced drying her hair.
In partnership with a lab in Japan, she developed the now signature proprietary AQUITEX™fabric after months of testing. With this fabric, Britta was finally able to dry her hair the way she wanted, protecting hair at its weakest (when wet) and resulting in frizz-free, shiny, healthy hair and less dry time. Next came the iconic design. In 1999, Britta secured the patent for the hands-free wrap shape which to this date is the gold standard for the hair drying turban category.
With over a million wraps and towels sold every year, AQUIS is a beloved routine staple across the globe, delivering healthy hair with less.
