Keune has earned a global reputation for merging high-performance haircare with a commitment to sustainability. With over a century of expertise, Keune partners with salons in more than 70 countries, delivering innovative colour solutions that prioritise both hair health and environmental responsibility. South African stylists have direct access to this legacy through Keune’s Tinta Color and Semi Color ranges, distributed exclusively by mhb, ensuring that the same rigorous international standards are upheld locally.
Keune’s manufacturing facilities in the Netherlands are powered by renewable energy, operate with a zero-waste mindset, and use recyclable, eco-friendly packaging. All Keune colour products are vegan and cruelty-free, aligning with global standards for ethical beauty. This approach ensures that stylists can offer clients high-performance results without compromising on sustainability.

Tinta Color, Keune’s permanent hair colour, stands out for its brilliance and reliability. It offers 100% grey coverage and boosts fibre nourishment by up to 75%, thanks to its advanced formula. Additionally, built-in UV protection minimises colour fading by up to 59%, which helps clients enjoy vibrant, long-lasting results. With innovative Shade Shifters more than 650 shades become possible for stylists’ creative expression.
South African stylists regularly report excellent outcomes with Keune products. Anrich Botha of Agora Hair shares, “I love Keune Tinta Color for its precision. Its formula is super-gentle and allows me to deliver soft, lived-in colour without compromising my client’s hair integrity. My clients always leave the salon feeling radiant and confident … thanks to Keune!”

For clients seeking a gentle yet vibrant colour, Keune’s Semi Color range is an ideal choice. This ammonia-free, tone-on-tone formula provides a soft, radiant finish with natural shine and up to 70% grey blending, perfect for a natural look. Its scalp-soothing, vegan composition, enhanced with coconut oil, nourishes hair while delivering long-lasting vibrancy for up to 24 washes. Nicola Smit of Hair By Nicola Smit adds, “As a blonde and balayage specialist, I rely solely on Keune to achieve beautiful, aspirational shades without sacrificing the health of the hair. Their innovative colour ranges give me the freedom to explore creative possibilities without compromising the condition of my client’s hair. In my view, true brilliance comes from luminous, healthy hair, not just exceptional colour. That’s why I choose Keune to help my clients realise their dream blondes and balayage looks.”

“Keune is more than just a colour brand, it is a true creative partner for stylists,” says Julie Rimmer, Keune Education Manager. Through mhb’s comprehensive education programme stylists are empowered with scientific knowledge, ethical standards, and ongoing training to achieve outstanding results.
