In high school she was torn between attending dentistry, psychology or chemical engineering.

She studied theater for five years. Kéfera took her actress record in 2013 with the highest average in the test. Her name, "Kéfera", is of Egyptian origin and means "first morning sunshine". In high school time was devoted to St. Anthony. Kéfera is bilingual, being fluent in English in addition to her native language Portuguese, she has also worked as an English teacher.

Kéfera suffered bullying when she was younger.

"I hated going to school. I cried every day. And blame me to be growing (both chronologically and to the sides). I thought that if I was not getting older, would not face the school. I wished to stay in kindergarten forever. And I did not know what to expect."

— Kéfera Buchmann, Muito Mais Que Cinco Minutos, (2015)
