Oyin Handmade
When Oyin Handmade founder Jamyla Bennu wasn't able to find products with naturally sourced ingredients that worked for her highly textured hair, she decided to take matters into her own hands — literally — and formulate them herself. "I just started whipping them up in my kitchen," she said in a statement sent to Allure. By 2001, Bennu had launched a full natural hair and body-care line.
