“As an advocate for natural hair and a mother of two beautiful children with rich, coily textures, I experienced
firsthand the frustration of searching for products that truly understood and catered to our unique hair textures. The more I searched, the clearer it became—there was a gap. A gap that reflected a larger issue: the lack of products that honored the rich heritage of African hair, while empowering women like me to embrace our natural beauty.

This realization ignited a passion in me. I knew I wasn’t alone in this struggle—so many women in my circle, my community, faced the same challenges. It wasn’t just about hair, it was about identity, pride, and the freedom to be ourselves. I couldn’t stand by and let that go unanswered.

That’s why I started KlevaKinky—not just as a brand, but as a movement to empower African women and men to reclaim
the beauty of their natural hair. Through our products, crafted with love, care, and sustainability, I’m sharing what has worked for me and many others. Together, we can celebrate our African heritage and the strength that comes from embracing who we truly are.

I invite you to join me on this journey—a dream turned reality—where natural beauty is celebrated, and where every strand of hair tells a story of resilience, pride, and empowerment."
