L’Oréal Professionnel works in partnership with L’Oréal Professionnel
salons to help hairdressers to dream, excel and succeed.
Dream
Hair is the fashion accessory of today, worn everyday to reflect
the personality of the individual, as important to the total
look as any item of catwalk clothing. Everything L’Oréal do
reflects this passionate interpretation - from their inspirational
live shows, their partnership with Central Saint Martins College
of Art & Design, to their seasonal colour collections. With
L’Oréal Professionnel you’ll be inspired to take fashion to
your heart and create beautiful hair.
Excel
L’Oréal Professionnel combines their passion for fashion with
cutting edge technology, to bring you a portfolio of high
performance products that meet your needs, allowing you and
your hairdresser to push creativity and achieve outstanding
results.
Succeed
L’Oréal Professionnel is the business and creative partner
of over 1 million of the world’s most dynamic hairdressers.
L’Oréal Professionnel partners are growing faster than the
total salon market.
Fashion
Fashion
plays a key role in Paris, where the stage is set for trends
to be created and re-created season after season.
L’Oréal Professionnel recognises the key link between fashion
and hair and works tirelessly with the world’s leading trend
agencies and the prestigious Central Saint Martins College
of Art and Design here in the UK to bring you the most fashionable
looks and colours.
Based on the major up and coming trends of each season, L’Oréal
Professionnel then works with their salons to ensure they
are offering you the latest trend advice, in order to create
the colours and shades that will be the season’s best accessory.
100 years of values 1909 - 2009
 For
a whole century, L’Oréal has been committed to the adventure
of beauty. The small, single brand company, started by a visionary
chemist, Eugène Schueller, in Paris, France in 1909, has grown
to become the world’s leading beauty company, thanks to its
rigorous scientific approach, its hunger for conquering international
markets and its ongoing quest for innovation and quality.
Few companies reach this symbolic milestone. Such longevity
cannot be put down to luck; it stems above all from the talents
of men and women, from their commitment, their convictions
and strong values which are continually being passed down
from generation to generation. The deployment of a powerful
and clear strategic vision has enabled the group to make beauty
accessible to as many people as possible, the world over.
Values such as integrity, responsibility and respect for people
and the environment have been a key part of L’Oréal’s DNA
since the early days. Their centenary in 2009 was an opportunity
to reaffirm their commitment to their vision and values: a
robust scientific approach, a constant quest for innovation;
a taste for real challenge; respect for diversity and the
environment. And a deep rooted belief in the valuable role
that beauty plays in society and for our consumers.
