The Sabuni Story
Our Name - Sabuni is the Swahili word for soap!
The Adinkra symbol Duafe, represented by a beautifully crafted wooden comb, embodies the essence of beauty, cleanliness, and the nurturing spirit of women. Celebrated in Akan culture, Duafe reflects the importance of self-care and respect, highlighting both physical beauty and inner virtues like kindness and love. This powerful emblem resonates with Sabuni Hair and Body Care’s commitment to empowering women through holistic well-being and self-celebration.
Meet Kimberly Mathis, our founder, who embraced her natural hair over 10 years ago and adopted a plant-based lifestyle not long after. Inspired by her journey, she recognized a gap in the market for luxury, plant-based products specifically formulated for textured hair and people of color.
At Sabuni, we are dedicated to offering cruelty-free, plant-based, and fair trade ingredients. Our mission is to provide you with reliable information about the health, social, animal welfare, and environmental attributes of our products at the point of purchase. Join us in celebrating diversity and embracing a more sustainable beauty routine. 💚
