Matrix:

In 1980, a hairdresser named Arnie Miller founded Matrix, a company whose name was inspired by the idea of synergy and togetherness. He wanted to weave together a matrix of support for every stylist, every hair type and every business model. He created Matrix, a brand where everyone belonged - and everyone felt welcome. 

Our values are to be Inclusive:

-          Our community welcomes everyone through education for every stylist, innovation for every hair type and support for every business model.

To be uncomplicated:

-          Simple solutions for complex hair styles. We make advanced looks accessible with user-friendly products and techniques so everyone can cut, colour and style with confidence.

To be uplifting:

-          Bringing colour to your life with an uplifting culture of support and optimism.

Biolage:

In 1990, Biolage was born from the mind of hairdresser and entrepreneur Arnie Miller, who saw the opportunity to bring out hair’s natural beauty with a touchable finish and fluid movement. Since its conception, the brand has been inspired by natural ingredients and known for its iconic white packaging and signature fragrance. 

Today, Biolage is recognised worldwide as a leader in professional haircare, committed to continuously improving its formulas following high sustainability standards.
