Nekin Palmer drew inspiration from her background. she was born and raised in the Bumban Village, Northern part of Sierra Leone where she was groomed to take pride in growing her hair and feel comfortable going out with it.

So my objective is to use our products to encourage the black culture where everybody devoid of race or region could be proud to grow their natural hair and feel really comfortable doing so. she told Salone Messenger

Despite facing many challenges, Nekin Palmer never gave up on her dream of producing skin and hair product. Nekin Palmer overcame all odds to owing Sierra Leone’s skin and hair products.

Mariama’s success was due in large part to her dedication and passion for finding solutions to grow her hair and maintain her skin. She was constantly experimenting with new growing techniques and introducing innovative ways to improve the products. Her enthusiasm and drive were contagious, and soon the company was producing more than ever before. Nekin’s success as a female who produce hair and skin product was an inspiration to many of the other women in Sierra Leone. Seeing her succeed, they were encouraged to pursue their own dreams and follow their passions. It wasn’t long before Nekin’s story was being shared far and wide.

speaking to Salone Messenger about challenges, Nekin said

Our major challenge I would say is “Fear”. Since we aim to change a mindset, it is huge to contend with the obsession we ladies currently have with imported hair and skin care products. The reception and reviews from our customers have been great so I believe we’ll win though the acceptability of the products is a bit low for now.
