✦ Our Story

More Than Beauty —
It's a Kulture

Welcome to Everything Beauty Kulture — founded by Kathalina Mbongioh Linna, your go-to destination for premium skincare and professional braiding services right here in Lanham, Maryland.

Linna's journey started with skincare. She created Kosglow — her own natural skincare line — as the first pillar of EBK, built on clean ingredients that truly celebrate melanin-rich skin. As her vision grew, she expanded into professional braiding, bringing the same passion and precision to every style she creates.

Today, Everything Beauty Kulture is the full expression of that vision — a brand where Kosglow skincare and expert braiding live together, and where every client leaves feeling seen, cared for, and beautiful.

Founder & Creative Director

Kathalina Mbongioh Linna — known to her clients simply as "Linna" — is the heart and soul behind Everything Beauty Kulture. Her story began not in a salon chair, but with a deep love for skincare and a belief that every woman deserves products that truly work for her skin.

That passion led Linna to create Kosglow — her own natural skincare line, born under the Everything Beauty Kulture umbrella. Kosglow was built on one principle: clean, effective ingredients that celebrate and nourish melanin-rich skin. What started as a personal mission quickly grew into a brand trusted by hundreds of clients across Lanham, Maryland and beyond.

As EBK grew, so did Linna's vision. She expanded into professional braiding services — bringing the same standard of excellence and care she poured into Kosglow into every braid she creates. Today, Everything Beauty Kulture is the full expression of that vision: a brand where skincare and braiding live together, and where every client leaves feeling seen, beautiful, and celebrated.

"I started Everything Beauty Kulture because I wanted every woman who walked through our doors to leave feeling like the queen she is. Beauty is not just about how you look — it's about how you feel."
