Adella’s Legacy: Our Natural Hair Growth Shampoo and Conditioner

I am proud to share with you the story of my grandmother, Ambrozine ‘Adella’ Kelly, who was born in Jamaica in 1870. Adella was a remarkable woman who served as the local midwife in the parish of Saint Mary. But she also had a passion for helping the women in her community look and feel beautiful with the help of her natural hair growth shampoo and conditioner.

Adella was determined to create a repair and nourishing shampoo to promote healthy hair growth, prevent hair breakage, and improve overall hair and scalp health. She experimented with various ingredients from her lush garden in the hills of Mile Gully, but she was particularly intrigued by the castor oil plant and its seeds.

Adella, a midwife and passionate beautician, stands proudly with her innovative hair care products, reflecting her dedication to promoting healthy hair growth and nourishment. The lush greenery of the Jamaican landscape serves as a backdrop, symbolizing the natural origins of Kintone's luxurious hair care line.

Through much trial and error, Grandma eventually perfected her special natural hair growth shampoo by roasting and pressing the castor beans from her garden. This shampoo had a unique, dark appearance and a pleasant aroma everyone loved. It quickly became popular among her community, who praised its ability to help their hair grow and stay healthy.

As a child, my father shared stories of my grandmother’s dedication to creating the perfect natural hair growth shampoo and conditioner, which greatly inspired me. I continued her legacy by producing and distributing our Kintone shampoo and conditioner set infused with Jamaican Black Castor Oil.

Today, people all over the world can appreciate Adella’s natural hair growth shampoo and conditioner for its natural ingredients and proven effectiveness in promoting healthy hair growth for all hair types, whether kinky, coily, curly, wavy, straight or chemically treated. As we say in Jamaica, “Out of many, one people.”

So, no matter what your hair type or background may be, it brings me great joy to honour my grandmother’s memory and to help you achieve healthy, beautiful hair with our natural hair growth shampoo and conditioner.
