Dosso Beauty is a Black woman-owned beauty brand based in Philadelphia, PA, founded by Kadidja after she experienced a severe allergic reaction to toxic braiding hair. Driven by a mission to make protective styling safer, she spent years researching and developing the first clinically tested, non-toxic, hypoallergenic braiding hair. Dosso Beauty's products are free of lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, and flame retardants, verified through three clinical trials. Beyond braiding hair, the brand offers organic hair care products including braid shampoo, rice water braid spray, and edge control — all paraben-free, sulfate-free, vegan, cruelty-free, and eco-friendly. Featured in Essence, NBC News, and Consumer Reports, Dosso Beauty is redefining the standard for safe, high-quality protective styling.
