About us

Love.

Passion.

Dedication.

Mitigadores is more than just a fashion brand. From the beginning it has been a community of friends who mitigate their burdens together, where there is shelter for the afflicted and encouragement for those who see their strength exhausted.


We firmly believe that we were all created with a shine that has no equal, with an essence that makes us unique just as we are and it is our task to bring this message to every woman.

Hi!

It gives me great joy that you are here and that now you are about to know the story of my life project.


I'm Daniela Roa and I am 26 years old. From a very young age, I used accessories in my hair as a refuge from the emotional and physical burden of not being able to manage my frizzy hair. Now I know that Mitigadores was born from my childhood when it came to help me fight day to day against those insecurities that took away my inner peace.


At university I studied design with an emphasis on product and that's when formally Mitigadores was born from my degree project. Now, together with my brother, his wife and all our great team, we want every woman to be able to experience in her life what it is to relieve burdens and that Mitigadores can reach the lives of millions of women to lighten their daily burdens and remind them that they are beautiful as they are.

Our History

2018

University Degree Project

 For my undergraduate thesis, I sought to answer in the first instance the question: why do we collect? Since all my life I had collected accessories for my head. From that question I found that my relationship with these accessories was much deeper, emotional and valuable than I thought.

I recognized that the accessories on my head have been the element through which I have sensitized myself to the outside world and have recognized aspects of form, color and materiality. I understood that the accessories for my head had become a motivation to discover new places, to do things that I did not want to do and to face the fears that I had inside.


In this process, as a designer, I understood that it is not just another accessory but the extension of a personality, an element of space, time and that contains emotion. In order to convey this, I went back to the time when I started wearing the turban and recognized the reasons why I collect them, based on psychology.


The turban came into my life to accompany me in the process of accepting aspects of my body with which I did not feel comfortable, one of them, my curly hair. The turban arrived to mitigate the emotional and physical burden of not being able to handle something I came into the world with, which was the quantity, texture and great volume of my curly hair.

First Units


After presenting my thesis and graduating from the University I started looking for a job as a designer. I sent thousands of resumes, but everywhere they asked for experience. By then my sister gave me a beautiful turban; I loved it, I used it for everything so I thought: why not make turbans and sell them?

Together with my mom we started with a machine that she had all her life and Wow, people loved those first Mitigators. I began to see that with this undertaking I could support myself financially and additionally, I was in love with what I was doing. We began to attend fairs and by 2019 we bought the first industrial machines for the workshop, which was on the first floor of our house.
