TRESemmé Launches 24/7 Digital Styling Platform

NEW YORK, October 15, 2012 – TRESemmé, the #1 styling brand in the U.S.*, is proud to announce the launch of TRESemmé Style Studio. TRESemmé Style Studio is an innovative digital styling platform that gives women 24/7 access to the tools and knowledge they need to create “salon-worthy” hair everyday at home, so tight budgets and cramped schedules will never again stand in the way of great hair.

TRESemmé Style Studio was born from the insight that women feel their best when they leave the salon, but have difficulty recreating styles at home and are uncertain about which products to use and how to use them. With TRESemmé Style Studio, women can browse a comprehensive library of how-to videos and get expert tips and product recommendations straight from the brand’s stylists.

“This year we’re aiming to further engage with our fans through the launch of TRESemmé Style Studio, which gives users personal, customized hair styling options and tips, and offers them access to the latest technology in digital styling,” said David Rubin, Brand Building Director, US Hair, Unilever.

The latest innovation in virtual makeover technology takes the digital styling experience to the next level, and for the first time ever, allows women to test styles and products on their hair online, offering them a truly customized experience.

TRESemmé Style Studio had a limited release during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, from September 6th-13th, 2012, with a concentrated marketing support plan across multiple platforms following later this year and the beginning of 2013.
