Our Story
Hi! My name is Carline. I started Marabou International in 2014 in my hometown, Carrefour, Haiti. I am a scientist and learning about hair, and I am also studying to be a doctor in Detroit, Michigan. When I decided to wear my hair naturally, I had a hard time finding good products that were safe and healthy. I found out that many other women had the same problem. This made me want to help. I used what I know about science and what my grandmother taught me about making special oils in Haiti.
With Marabou International, I have helped myself and many other women feel good about their natural hair. Our company does more than just make hair products. We help women farmers in Haiti get jobs, and we help women feel proud of who they are. We are happy to help many different people, like:
- David, the Salon Owner in Detroit: David owns a hair salon. He wants the best natural hair products for his customers. We work with salons like David’s to give them great products that help their clients feel happy and come back again.
- Maya, the Natural Beauty Fan: Maya cares about the planet and wants safe, natural hair products. She likes brands that are honest and good for the earth. Our products are made with natural ingredients and are safe for everyone.
- Michelle, the Sales Manager: Michelle works to bring the best beauty products to big stores. She looks for new and high-quality items. Marabou International is a great choice for stores because we care about quality and helping the community.
After eleven years of helping women in Haiti take care of their beautiful hair, I am excited to help women in Detroit too.
Testimonials
Initially I bought the turmeric goat milk soap because I was looking for something natural and to my surprise the soap healed this rash I had on my legs and thighs which was an adverse reaction from a medication I was taking. I used a steroid cream anticipating that it would heal the rash but it did not. However the goat milk soap completely restored my skin and healed the rash and my skin was back to normal. In addition, it left my skin moisturized to where I didn't necessarily have to put lotion on afterwards. I would highly recommend purchasing this product and it smells sooo good!

Best Soap EverI got a sample a while back, and it was a fairly small piece, but it lasted me for about 2-3 months, It worked so well. I'm not the one to have acne but i do tend to get pimples here in there as well as hyperpigmentation, it's not really drastic but its there and usually around my nose to the middle of my eyebrows and under my eyes but still close to my nose. This soap has made my skin clear, glow and soft and i love it.

This Soap Is Amazing!I recently had the pleasure of trying out Pure Haitian Black Castor Oil for my son's hair, and I must say, it has been a game-changer in his haircare routine. From its natural ingredients to its incredible benefits, this product has exceeded all my expectations. First and foremost, I love that Pure Haitian Black Castor Oil is made with all-natural ingredients. It's reassuring to know that I'm applying a product to his hair that is free from harsh chemicals and additives. The purity of this oil is evident in its rich, dark color and thick consistency.
One of the standout features of this oil is its versatility. I've been using it as a hot oil treatment, a leave-in conditioner, and even as a scalp massage oil. No matter how I choose to incorporate it into my son's routine, it consistently delivers fantastic results. It has deeply nourished his hair, leaving it feeling incredibly soft, smooth, and moisturized. Not to mention, it has helped to tame frizz and improve the overall manageability of his hair.
Another fantastic benefit of Pure Haitian Black Castor Oil is its ability to promote hair growth. I've noticed a visible difference in the length and thickness of his hair since I started using it. I'm thrilled to see his hair flourishing and becoming healthier with each use. Pure Haitian Black Castor Oil is a remarkable haircare product that has transformed my son's hair. I wholeheartedly recommend giving this product a try, and I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

The ancestral secret hairMy niece was suffering from balding around her hair edges because she was using Hair Glue for her Hair Extensions. I felt so bad for her that I took it upon myself to do some research to help her out. I read about Pure Haitian Black Castor Oil, and how it can help hair growth. I must admit I was somewhat skeptical, but I made the purchase. My niece started using the product and within the 1st week in a half she started having new hair growth in the areas of her hair she hadn’t had in the pass six months. She was so excited about the growth that she couldn’t stop raving about the changes. I was so thrilled for her, and grateful for the changes the product produce that I had to write about it. Haitian Black Castor Oil has made a believer out of me, and I personally would recommend it to anyone who is suffering for hair thinning or balding.
