Philip Kingsley founded his eponymous brand in 1960, driven by a passion for helping people achieve the healthiest hair possible. His journey began working at his uncle's hairdressing salon in London’s East End, where he quickly recognised the powerful connection between hair and self-esteem, for both men and women. Over the years, Philip revolutionised the haircare industry with groundbreaking innovations, including award-winning products and expert advice focused on nutrition and overall wellness. He was the first to promote the importance of hair health through diet and wellbeing, coined the term ‘bad hair day,’ and created the world’s first pre-shampoo conditioner, Elasticizer, that was originally developed for Audrey Hepburn.
