From hair coloring to styling, the Schwarzkopf Professional® brand’s products are expertly formulated by professionals for professionals to meet the needs of all hair types.

“When coloring and styling for celebrities, it is so important to use quality lighteners, color and styling products that you can depend on,” says Tokyo Stylez, Celebrity Hairstylist. “When my client’s need a creation from me, they expect nothing short of jaw-dropping, break-the-internet fabulous! They want it done right and done right away! I don’t have time for over-processing, trial and error, apologies or do-overs. I am confident that when I use Schwarzkopf Professional® products, I can deliver what my clients expect from me."

As the exclusive haircare brand for Madame Tussauds Hollywood, Schwarzkopf Professional® is used for the color, styling and hair care needs of the glamorous locks of wax lookalikes for famous celebtities. The museum’s artists spend weeks recreating the celebrity’s hairstyles, hand-inserting each single hair – usually human – into the figures, for a realistic and meticulous look. In addition to haircare maintenance, Madame Tussauds Hollywood will also include a 1950’s style salon, with Schwarzkopf Professional® branding and products.

“Over 3,000 visitors a day will see and interact with our brand in this fun environment,” said James Jordan, Brand Manager, Care & Styling, Schwarzkopf Professional®. “This is just the start of an exciting partnership between Schwarzkopf Professional® and Madame Tussauds Hollywood.”

Madame Tussauds strives to keep the figures as accurate as possible and in immaculate shape – and that includes their hair, which is routinely washed, blow-dried and styled. The partnership enables the museum to maintain and improve the tresses of its figures by using the products, technology and proven expertise provided by the haircare experts from Schwarzkopf Professional®.

Schwarzkopf Professional® brand products including IGORA ROYAL, IGORA VIBRANCE & BLONDME, and OSiS+ hairsprays will be used for the color, styling and hair care needs of the wax statues at Madame Tussauds Hollywood.
