Coil Beauty is an online retail community created by and for women of color to make their shopping experience fun and convenient.
Bates, a Spelman College graduate, launched her business with partner Kethlyn White in 2018 after dealing with an unpleasant beauty supply store experience that made her realize the lack of quality products and customer service. Coil Beauty promotes and sells emerging Black-owned brands and offers a selection of products that can address every beauty concern for people of color.
The online boutique sells products like Pear Nova, Soultanicals, UnSun, Mielle Organics and more. The company focuses on quality customer engagement by providing, personal touches and feedback. They make shopping easy by creating categories for hair, skin, nails, lips, him and kids.
Coil Beauty’s website also has a blog featuring helpful articles that touch on an array of beauty topics.
Bates and White are tackling the issue of Black ownership and representation in the beauty industry by creating this marketplace made just for you. We encourage you to consider supporting this Black-owned business.
