The Africa Hair Market brought the thriving and diverse world of African haircare under one roof at the Sarit Expo Centre, Loita Hall, on March 22-23, 2025. The dynamic event connected industry leaders, hairstylists, salon owners, manufacturers, and emerging creatives across the haircare, skincare, cosmetology, and fashion value chains. Co-located with the money-literacy conference, Hela Storytellas Edition 5, the platform merged the energy of a trade exhibition with practical conversations on financial literacy, business structuring, and growth.
The event was designed to empower young entrepreneurs by increasing access to markets, mentorship, and capital-readiness knowledge. Through exposure to established brands, peer networks, and actionable financial strategies, participants were equipped to professionalise their craft, scale sustainable ventures, and position their businesses competitively within Africa’s fast-growing beauty and fashion industries.
From exhibitions, conferences, fashion shows, music and everything in between, Africa Hair Market was an eclectic yet cohesive experience.
