Introducing: Shameeka Hunt - Creator of The Hour Glas

America and wanted to rise to the top of whatever organization I worked for. But my children has changed this aspiration. Instead, I seek to be at a place where I am available for my children no matter the day or hour. I want to be involved in all the

school and extracurricular activities. Being an entrepreneur, I want to exhibit to my children how you can do anything you set your mind to. Also, I want to instill a strong work ethic in my children, which they get to see day in and day out with me running a business.

Q: Tell me about your product.

A: KeepMeTight is a line of compression undergarments. The foundation of KeepMeTight is the use of natural materials, Made in USA, and addressing needs of women of all ages and sizes. KeepMeTight’s slogan is “Look Great, Feel Great, In

Comfort, All Day.” My first product, Hour Glas, is the brainchild of the business.

The Hour Glas addresses the abdominal area. It cinches, not just smooths. The Hour Glas sits below the bra and above the pubic area. Due to the fabrics and materials chosen you immediately notice the flattening of your abs. In the Hour Glas, you can breathe! No more sucking yourself in. Let the Hour Glas do

do the work for you. And then you also have the flexibility of adjusting your garment with the bra closure that gives you approximately 2” compression. This flexibility allows for female bodily changes and one losing or gaining weight, without the need to buy several sizes of a product. So how do you get into the Hour Glas? In 5 seconds or less use the hidden zipper on the side for easy and fast application.

Q: Who or what motivated you to start it?

A: After giving birth to my two children both via Cesarean, I was frustrated by not being able to find any product that would cinch in my stomach. While my exercise and diet regime allowed me to get back to my desired weight, my stomach would not go away and it was exacerbated against my new smaller figure. Seeing and hearing my constant frustration, my husband said to me “If you can’t find something that works, why don’t you create it.” And so was the start of KeepMeTight and the Hour Glas.

Q: How will it benefit the health of others?
