Who we are ..

One of the fastest growing beauty companies in the industry, Sexy Hair Concepts® manufactures top-quality products for distribution within the professional beauty industry. Headquartered in the Los Angeles suburb of Chatsworth, California, it sells products in more than 60,000 licensed salons throughout the United States and distributes in more than 36 countries, including the UK and Ireland.

Sexy Hair was founded in 1998 by hairstylist and business visionary Michael O'Rourke, who had owned and operated a successful salon chain in his native South Africa and established Carlton Hair in Southern California. Passionate about enhancing human potential, O’Rourke founded Sexy Hair with a commitment to promote the importance of education and the empowerment of the hairdresser. He created the company’s unique Structure in Motion™ haircutting technique, which encourages harmony of mind and body to inspire business and personal success.

Sexy Hair offers seven hair care lines to address the needs of every hair type, texture, length and lifestyle: Big Sexy Hair®, Curly Sexy Hair®, Healthy Sexy Hair®, Short Sexy Hair®, Silky Sexy Hair®, Straight Sexy Hair® and Sexy Hair Organics. Its nearly 70 solution-oriented products do exactly what their names say and feature eye-catching packaging that’s instantly recognized all over the world. We do not test on animals. The brand is a favorite of Hollywood’s leading entertainment-industry stylists, including the hands behind the hair on Desperate Housewives, Big Love, Entourage and Dancing with the Stars. Sexy Hair is now making its presence known in the UK market with followers such as Sophie Ellis Bexter and Girls Aloud Stylist Lisa Laudet!   Big Sexy Hair is the company’s original and still most popular line, which began with volumizing Root Pump™ Spray Mousse in 1999, followed by Big Sexy Hair Spray & Play™ volumizing hairspray several months later. It is the company’s signature product in the distinctive “big red can,” and currently the number one professional hairspray in North America.

Karl-Heinz Pitsch, Sexy Hair’s president and chief executive officer since April 2009, is making a major investment in education for 2010/2011 by reaching out to stylists with three times more field events than last year (including a 40-city U.S. “Sexy Rocks” tour), plus new online training classes in both business and hairstyling.  He is also streamlining Sexy Hair’s product lines and introducing new and improved formulas.   You do not need to miss out in the UK- call the head office 0845 2309660 to arrange your very own personal training session with one of our Sexy Hair Educators or fly out to Los Angeles and train at Sexy Hair's Institute of Courage!

Thanks to aggressive branding, global marketing and the savvy to remain responsive to industry needs, Sexy Hair is seeing year on year growth and international expansion.
