What does Dosso Beauty do?

Dosso Beauty is a Black woman-owned beauty company founded in 2018 by Kadidja Dosso. Based in Philadelphia, the brand focuses on providing safe, non-toxic hair products, particularly hypoallergenic braiding hair and organic hair care solutions. These products are clinically tested for safety, catering to individuals with sensitive scalps and skin. Dosso Beauty has served over 50,000 women and has received recognition, including a grant from Pharrell Williams's Black Ambition nonprofit. The company has expanded from an e-commerce startup to a multifaceted brand, launching its first brick-and-mortar retail store and luxury braid salon, "The Dosso Beauty Experience," in July 2024. Dosso Beauty emphasizes clean, accessible beauty for people of color, with a mission rooted in cultural upliftment and sustainability. Its product offerings include lightweight, pre-stretched braiding hair and a range of organic hair care items, all designed to be affordable and free from harsh chemicals. The brand also provides experiential services, fostering community and confidence among its customers.
