Choosing Products

Collaboration between shampoo & perfume.

What?

Special edition shampoo & conditioner scented with a line of perfume.

Why?

  • Original – I haven’t seen it done before
  • Everyone likes good-smelling hair – incentive to buy the product
  • Good target for women – I am combining 2 everyday products

Perfume Brands :

  • Dior – too strong & overpowering
  • Escada – fruity – good combination with shampoos
  • Lacoste – light, sweet small – well recognised brand

I am choosing Lacoste, as they have a few collections, one of which is the Pink Collection, which is light and fruity. Using a collection will be easier to collaborate and means I can create more than one product – A line/collection, rather than just using the same scent in each shampoo & conditioner.

Shampoo Brands :

  • Alterna Hair Care – Bamboo scented, American, professional – so not easy for people to get their hands on
  • Pureology – American, so hard to buy in the UK, more for professional use
  • Head & Shoulders – too specific (anti-dandruff)
  • Herbal Essences – too scented (will loose the smell of the perfume scent)
  • Aussie – too much of a specific scent
  • Kerastase – more professional
  • Toni & Guy – support specific charities
  • John Freida – limited options to match a collection of scents
  • Loreal – too wide of a range
  • Garnier – too wide of a range/too big
  • Tresemme/Pantene – these seem to be the best option in terms of, easy to get a hold of, good quality but not too professional, well known brand name.

I am choosing Tresemme, as it seems to be slight better rated compared to Pantene. It is a well known, quality brand name that does not have too much of an overpowering scent, so will not overpower the perfume scent that is added.
