Schwarzkopf Professional recently hosted the inaugural Hair by Schwarzkopf Pro event in Mumbai, a grand celebration of global artistry and hair innovation. This landmark show, held at the St. Regis, marked a significant milestone for the brand, commemorating over 125 years of global hair artistry and 25 years of inspiring hairdressing excellence in India. The event underscored Schwarzkopf Professional’s unwavering commitment to precision, performance, and pushing the boundaries of professional hairdressing worldwide.
A highlight of the show was the unprecedented collaboration between Schwarzkopf Professional and Sassoon Academy, who joined forces for the very first time in India to launch the much-anticipated ‘Lived-In’ Colour Trend. Hair legends Richard Ashforth, International Creative Director, and Matthew Carroll, Colour Director, Sassoon Academy, mesmerized the audience with a precision-led segment, bringing Sassoon’s iconic artistry to the Indian stage. Their presence signals a new era for the Indian salon landscape, blending international standards with local vision.
At the core of the event was the unveiling of Lived-In, Schwarzkopf Professional’s biggest colour trend of the year. This trend is designed for today’s clients who desire modern tones with low-maintenance regrowth, seamless blending, and colour that beautifully evolves over time. The Lived-In concept champions effortless, dimensional results rooted in salon practicality.
Schwarzkopf Professional’s Hair Artist Kollektiv – India’s creative ambassadors – brought the Lived-In trend to life through a series of striking looks. Showcasing shades like Lived-In Toffee, Lived-In Mocha, and Lived-In Biskoff, these modern browns are meticulously crafted to flatter every Indian skin tone and hair texture. Vaishakhi Haria, Ryan D’Rozario, and Deepak Jalhan, all Meisters -Hair Artist Kollektiv, emphasized how Lived-In is about personalized, low-maintenance colour that offers rich, warm dimension and grows out beautifully.
The Lived-In trend, built on the trusted performance of Schwarzkopf Professional’s IGORA portfolio, leverages soft-root work, dimension-enhancing tones, and intuitive blending. This makes it ideal for clients seeking to extend their time between salon visits without compromising on style or impact. Schwarzkopf Professional’s Hair Muse, Mira Kapoor, graced the runway as the showstopper, sporting her signature Lived-In colour created by Vaishakhi Haria. The event saw a strong attendance from renowned salons, leading salon chains, artists, hairdressers, and salon owners, all coming together to celebrate this grand occasion.
