The J&K Group

The J&K Group is a fast growing beauty company with $12M+ cum rev, a large backlog and the vision to create the Amazon of beauty for people of color.

Company Summary

We started with Sphinx Hair (hair extensions, wigs) and built a base of 600+ stores in the $3B+ Indep. Beauty Supply Store market, ripe for disruption. We launched SIIA Cosmetics and invested in ecommerce to enter the $500B+ cosmetics market by partnering with top experts Andy Spade and celeb makeup artist James Kaliardos. We will rapidly grow by disrupting this market with a B2B ecommerce platform, expanding it to stylists and growing SIIA.
