Shereen Makhanye a natural in beauty field.
What started as a haircare range in response to an inability to find good local, natural haircare products, has blossomed into a thriving business that caters for the body as well.Though they parted ways later, Makhanye clung to the dream and now offers 15 products, including a men's range that consists of beard grooming products.
Her body care products, which I've tried after finding her stall at a market a couple of years ago, leave the body moisturised and feeling silky smooth.The beard kit is steel grey with a splash of burgundy that adds colour. The prices range from R60 for the shampoo to R100 each for the body lotion and the body scrub . The beard kit is R400.
"We were able to invite natural hair influencers to come and see the brand and learn if there is a market for us in Australia because it is a very cold market," she explains. "Our raw materials come from the African continent. We look at the bio-degradabilty of the product and its toxicity. So the brand is green from the supply chain to the packaging, which is recyclable."
