Hi, I’m Alexa, Founder CEO of Huha, an intimates brand making breathable, comfier skin-layer basics that encourage one’s sense of body positivity and self-love. In the process of creating what is better for our bodies and minds, we are creating a better world, too.

Since I started the brand in 2020, Huha is rooted in the belief that everyone deserves to feel comfortable in their skin. For too long, we’ve been trained to think that the way we look is more important than the way we feel, and we’re on a mission to change that.

We are a small but dedicated team with great ambitions, and even greater results! As a fast-growing startup, we believe that if we set our minds to a unified goal and work together to achieve it, the moon is the limit. Since our inception, we have doubled our growth year-over-year, given back to dozens of wonderful charities, and garnered tens of thousands of loyal customers who believe what we believe: that comfort is more important than vanity.

Huha is on a mission to create healthier, more comfortable garments that improve one’s sense of body positivity and self-love. Our values guide our work, and our mission guides our values.
