Early life
Kamal was born in Kuwait to Egyptian parents working there and lived there for over twenty years. She also joined the Higher Institute of Dramatic Arts, studying set design and acting.

However, her professor, the artist Saad Ardesh, managed to convince them, and she apprenticed under him.

Kamal began her artistic career while still in her first year at the institute. She participated in a historical series titled "Al Adl wal Tafah" alongside Madiha Kamel and Abdullah Ghaith. Her artistic journey continued with various roles offered to her by directors. She worked with director Sami Mohamed Ali in the series "Watah Al Tareeq" and appeared in the film "The Lost Plane." Eventually, she decided to return to Egypt to commence her artistic career in the 1980s, spanning over thirty continuous years until her illness and subsequent passing in 2014.

Death
Kamal suffered from a health crisis and was subsequently transferred to the Intensive Care Unit at Al-Qasr Al-Aini Hospital, Cairo. After undergoing several tests and scans, it was revealed that she had uterine cancer, not liver cancer as was rumored. She died on 26 May 2014 at the age of 53.
