Ugandan entrepreneur Juliet Kakurim is transforming banana stems into 100% organic hair extensions, blending sustainability with empowerment. By converting plant fiber waste into beauty products, she reduces environmental pollution while creating jobs for women farmers. Each hairpiece is body-friendly, biodegradable, and locally made, offering a natural alternative to imported synthetic hair. Beyond hair, her team crafts baskets and décor from banana fiber, making every step eco-conscious.
