OUR ORIGIN STORY

It began with a sensitive scalp and a wooden spoon.

“I didn’t start it as a business. I wanted to make my own hair products.”

In 2016, after years of relaxed hair and the burning, itchy feeling that came with it, Sienna’s founder cut her hair and began learning what her natural texture needed.

By 2019, she had researched natural-hair care, spoken to people already making products, and bought her first shea butter and oils. With no mixer, she blended that first batch over the stove with a wooden spoon.

Her colleagues noticed how soft, shiny and moisturised her hair looked. Samples became requests to buy. Those customers shared Sienna with friends and family, growing a community of women, men, children, beard-care customers and barbers who appreciated softer, well-cared-for hair.

Today, Sienna is still growing the same way it began: one real recommendation at a time.

HOW TO CARE FOR MY HAIR

Simple moisture care for natural hair.

Hair has its own language. Start with hydration, use a little butter to seal it in, and adjust the amount to what your hair loves.

1. Start damp after washing or lightly misting.

2. Warm a little between your palms.

3. Smooth through the mid-lengths and ends.

4. Style gently in the way that feels good for you.

How much shea butter should I use on natural hair?

Start with a pea-sized amount and add more only if needed. Sienna is a rich, thick hair butter, so a little goes a long way.

When should I use shea butter in my hair routine?

Apply a small amount after water, leave-in conditioner, or another hydrating step. The butter works best as a finishing layer that helps seal in moisture.

Can I use it for kids’ afro or mixed-texture hair?

It can be used in a simple family hair-care routine for afro, curly, coily, and mixed-texture hair. Use a small amount, avoid the eyes, and patch test first when trying any new fragranced cosmetic product.

How do I detangle thick or coarse hair more gently?

Work in sections on damp hair. Add slip with your preferred conditioner, begin at the ends with your fingers or a wide-tooth comb, and move upward slowly.

Can I use it with braids, twists, or other protective styles?

Yes. Smooth a small amount over the lengths and ends while preparing or refreshing the style. Keep the style comfortable rather than tight.

Is Sienna a black hair treatment?

Sienna is a cosmetic hair butter for moisture-focused care, not a medical treatment. If your scalp is sore, inflamed, or persistently itchy, stop use and speak to a healthcare professional.
