History

Established in 2004.

Beachcombers has been online selling Indian ethnic women’s accessories since 2002. We began selling part-​time on eBay and then opened the website, www​.Shop​Beach​combers​.com, in 2004 (the year of the hurricanes), when we moved from Ohio to Orlando, Florida and turned the business into a full time venture. In September 2008, we opened a retail store in the College Park Shopping District just outside of downtown Orlando, followed by buying much larger building in Orlando in 2013.

We have have also moved from teaching henna from afar to offering live henna workshops throughout the year teaching beginning and professional henna techniques.

It’s been quite a ride, this business adventure of ours!

Meet the Business Owner

Jody R.

Business Owner

I have the best job in the world! I am a professional henna artist and I teach others how to henna!

I also work directly with our suppliers to design our shoes, bangles, & bangle stands. Our suppliers are all family businesses too, so that gives us the flexibility we need to keep quality up and customize our designs based on customer needs. It also allows us to support small local communities instead of big factories, a cause very dear to us.

I write all our instructions for our products. I was introduced to all these ethnic items by my other half Asad but, I was clueless about them at first. Being a man, Asad couldn’t help. I had to ask many questions from ethnic women and learn by trial and error. I don’t want to even think of how little I knew about henna way back then! These experiences inspired me to write very clear instructions for all our items so that anyone (even Americans like myself) could use our items like a native and be comfortable doing it.
