Mixed Chicks, a small company that makes specialized hair care products for women of mixed race, has won a jury award of more than $8 million in a trademark and trade dress dispute with a multimillion-dollar beauty supply company.

Sally Beauty Supply, the world’s largest retailer of professional beauty supplies, agreed last month to pay $8.5 million to Mixed Chicks after a California jury found Sally Beauty had infringed the trademarks of Mixed Chicks’s products.
