As we celebrate Black History Month, it’s a time to honour the remarkable contributions of Black women in the beauty industry and reflect on the powerful legacy of self-expression, resilience, and creativity. At Nails & Brows Mayfair, we recognise the importance of celebrating beauty in all its forms, while championing the diverse voices and talents that have shaped the industry.
The Power of Representation
For generations, Black women have been at the forefront of beauty innovation and trends, often defining and redefining standards of beauty. From bold brows to intricate nail art, these forms of self-expression have been deeply embedded in cultural identity and pride.
At Nails & Brows, we understand that beauty is not just about aesthetics—it’s about empowerment. This Black History Month, we celebrate the Black-owned brands and creators who are transforming the beauty world and breaking barriers.
Spotlight on Black-Owned Beauty Brands
We are proud to stock and support Black-owned brands that are making waves in the beauty industry. From pioneering entrepreneurs to luxury beauty products, these brands embody excellence and creativity:
Beauty Edit Mayfair by Sherrille Riley
Founded by Sherrille Riley, Beauty Edit Mayfair has revolutionised brow care. With her range of essential eyebrow products and tools—including the hero brow gel and pencils—Sherrille has empowered women to embrace their natural beauty, enhancing their brows with confidence.
Ateh Jewel’s blush collection, created for all skin tones, celebrates rich, pigmented shades that flatter and illuminate. Her commitment to inclusivity and beauty diversity is a shining example of the importance of representation in makeup.
The award-winning Charlotte Mensah’s range of Manketti hair oil products offers deeply nourishing formulas that restore and revive natural hair textures. Her impact as a hairstylist and founder is a testament to Black excellence in the beauty industry.
Mimi et Mina
Mimi et Mina celebrates Black beauty with its luxurious hair and scalp oil, designed to nourish natural textures and promote scalp health. As a Black-founded luxury salon brand, Mimi et Mina brings a holistic approach to haircare, focusing on revitalising and hydrating, making it a standout name in beauty.
The Legacy of Bold Brows and Nails
For many Black women, brows and nails have always been more than just beauty rituals—they are forms of artistic expression and cultural identity. From perfectly shaped arches to intricate nail designs, these beauty statements reflect creativity, history, and pride.
Our skilled technicians at Nails & Brows Mayfair celebrate this legacy with services that cater to all, whether you’re looking for expertly shaped brows or a statement manicure. We believe in offering tailored services that enhance and honour your unique beauty.
