About Us

 

I’m Akua Kwarteng the founder of SHB Hair Care. My journey into hair care started unexpectedly through a side hustle as a hair braider. In that space, I saw up close just how deeply hair loss and thinning can affect someone’s confidence. Over time, I also noticed patterns — many of the women I worked with were struggling because of hormonal imbalances, nutritional factors, autoimmune conditions, or physical trauma to their hair from certain styles.

At the same time, I faced my own challenges with hair loss. By turning to natural, holistic solutions, I was able to restore my hair and began helping others do the same. What started as a personal solution grew into something much bigger — I’ve since supported over 200 women worldwide in reclaiming not just healthier, stronger hair, but also the confidence that comes with it.

That’s what inspired me to create SHB HAIR CARE— a brand dedicated to providing the tools, knowledge, and products needed for holistic hair care.

My mission is simple: to help people restore their hair and their confidence, naturally — in 2025 and beyond.
