KÉRASTASE - Defining Luxury in Hair Care & Style

MOVING WITH THE TIMES

The current scenario, though challenging, has actually opened up new opportunities for all of us. We are testing and learning every day. We are perfecting new ways of working and collaborations with our partners have only become stronger. The industry was immensely hit due to the complete shut-down a couple of months ago, however, we can see it inching towards revival week on week.

We are working closely with our partner salons to devise plans to connect with new and existing consumers, be it through our Social Commerce channel, in-salon promotions and offer, or advocacy and media campaigns. Consumer sentiment is also changing with people learning to live with the virus and willing to step back into salons. Ensuring a safe and comfortable consumer experience is something our salons take seriously and they have therefore taken all possible measures to make this happen.
