Rooted in a Mothers Heart and a Simple Belief

A Story Rooted in Care and Connection

Kente Beauty is a South African brand inspired by a mother's desire to create safe, natural skincare and haircare products for her family. ​Founded to address her youngest son's skin sensitivities and her clients' needs as a wig maker, the brand uses African botanicals to craft clean, effective products suitable for all family members. Kente Beauty emphasizes inclusivity, sustainability, and the power of nature, aiming to make self-care easy and effective for everyone. ​The brand values quality, purity, and simplicity, and strives to be transparent, approachable, and educational in its communication. ​Kente Beauty wants to be known for trust, effectiveness, and inclusivity, empowering customers with natural, safe products that deliver results. ​

When you support Kente Beauty on Terra, you're choosing more than skincare and haircare—you’re choosing a story. Born from a mother’s love and crafted with African botanicals, Kente Beauty embodies trust, inclusivity, and the power of nature. 

From Nurturing Vulnerable Communities to Everyday Households

What began as a solution for a specific need in a vulnerable community of cancer patients and women facing hair and scalp challenges soon evolved into something greater. Today, Kente Beauty offers skin-loving products designed to care for every family member, delivering versatile, pure, and thoughtful solutions that truly embody the spirit of connection and care.
