About Skinned Olives


Skinned Olives is an Australian hair care brand founded by salon owner Xainab Kataieh. After over nine years behind the chair, I saw the same pattern again and again. Women struggling with shedding, thinning, breakage, postpartum changes, and scalp stress, while most products on the market were cosmetic, trend-driven, and inconsistent in results. Skinned Olives was created to change that.

Our Philosophy

Hair health begins at the follicle environment. Not quick fixes. Not trend driven formulas.

Our rituals are built to support the scalp first, strengthen the hair fibre, and deliver results through consistency over time.

Traditional oiling practices inspired the foundation, developed through modern clinical thinking and nine years behind the chair.

What makes us different

Most hair care is designed to look good on a shelf. Skinned Olives is designed to perform in your routine.

Every formula is intentional:
* High performance actives and botanical oils
* Scalp first treatment logic
* Luxury textures with real function
* No shortcuts. No unnecessary fillers

This is hair care that earns its place long term.

Built through results

Skinned Olives grew through real women sharing their outcomes, not pushy selling.

This is lived experience, formulation integrity, and relentless standards.

Our Inspiration

Skinned Olives was built from years behind the chair and the real concerns women experience, from postpartum shedding to scalp stress and breakage.

From the beginning, we worked closely with women in our community and sought guidance from hair professionals to ensure each formula was developed with both experience and performance in mind.

Every product is designed as a scalp first treatment ritual, created to support the follicle environment and strengthen the hair fibre over time through consistency and intention.

This brand is the result of lived experience, formulation integrity, and an uncompromising commitment to results led hair care.
