REDKEN DOESN'T DO ANIMAL TESING
Redken has NOT tested on animals for any of its products, including Redken's hair color line. Redken is concerned with animal welfare and even sent a top scientist to Alaska to work with the otter cleanup effort following the Valdez oil spill. Redken has made substantial contributions to the Johns Hopkins Center for Alternatives to Animal Testing.
REDKEN HISTORY
Redken Laboratories was founded in 1960 by the American actress Paula Kent.
Frequent chemical services and hairstyle changes were routine for any actress of her day, but Paula was extra sensitive to many of the products used by the hairdressers and make-up artists. She was frustrated that no one could explain why the products were irritating.
Her new goal: to produce gentle, non-irritating hair products.
The actress & her hairdresser, Jheri Redding (the REDKEN name comes from Redding + Kent) began with 3 hair products and an intensive education program for hairdressers about the chemistry of hair and skin. The formulas were developed based on three principles:
Redken's Protein technology
Hair is composed primarily of protein; an acidic pH of 4.5-5.5, complementing the natural pH of the hair and skin
Redken Hair Products recommended exclusively by licensed cosmetologists in professional salons
By 1965, Ms. Kent had full ownership of Redken Labs, based in California. During the '70s and '80s, the company was a leader in product technology in the US and abroad. In 1993, L'Oreal purchased Redken and now its headquarters are on 5th Avenue NYC. Today, Redken is a global leader in professional haircare products and services.
Redken products are now available in professional beauty salons in over FIFTY COUNTRIES.
REDKEN: BEAUTY EMPOWERED BY SCIENCE
In 1960, Redken introduced the concept of protein reconditioning. Based on evidence that hair is composed primarily of proteins, and can absorb topically applied proteins, Redken developed new protein-based products. Salons were suddenly able to condition hair internally, for the long-term rather than just solely camouflage damage.
REDKEN'S CONDITIONING SYSTEM
Patent #6,015,574 was issued for Redken's exclusive Interbond Conditioning System. An integral part of Redken's hair color & haircare collection, it provides simple solutions to specific needs by carrying highly specialized ingredients to the hair. These ingredients help transform the hair's inner structure while dramatically improving its outer appearance.
