About us
From a single salon and two hairdressers to a thriving community of seven salons and 70 dedicated employees – we're here to bring the best in hair care directly to you.
But our journey wasn't exactly straightforward. In fact, Henrik Danielsson, the founder of Headon, originally aspired to be a pig farmer! However, with a mother who was a hairdresser, destiny led him into the world of hairdressing rather than tending to pigs.
In 2002, Henrik opened the doors to Headon's very first salon on Östra Kristinelundsvägen in Malmö. Without the landlord knowing, the entrance door was painted a vibrant red. Right from the start, Headon's core mission has been to stand out from the crowd. While the door may no longer be red, we still take pride in setting ourselves apart!
After thriving in the industry for over 20 years, growing our business, competing, and winning numerous awards, including the prestigious Hairdressing Company of the Year, it was time to embark on the next stage of our journey. Our mission: to bring professional hair care to you.
We understand hair like no other, and we know that hair is hair. It has no gender, only needs. Our commitment is to provide the absolute best products for everyone, regardless of their individual hair care requirements.
So, who are we at Headon Products, and what do we stand for?

And what about Team Headon?

Sustainability, what's our take on it and what actions have we taken in order to do our part?
Headon's vision is to be the hairdressing company of the future, dedicated to sustainable development and working to reduce our environmental impact. It's a long journey with many challenges, but we're committed to achieving our goals.Throughout this journey, we're committed to transparency, sharing our efforts and challenges openly.
To operate our business with a clear conscience, we're reviewing the products we sell and our supplier relationships. We're implementing stricter requirements for product contents and considering various aspects, from packaging to social values and innovative, eco-friendly solutions. We're also thoroughly analyzing our own operations to assess our overall environmental footprint.
So, when we were picking out packaging for our products, we had two things in mind:
- We were all about using recycled and recyclable plastic.
- We totally vibed with white plastic.
Now, why white, you ask?
Well, fun fact: while colored plastic can technically be recycled, it usually doesn't end up that way. Recycling colored plastic mixes all the colors, making this weird grey/brown mix that nobody wants. But white plastic? That gets sorted and recycled, so our bottles and tubes can come back as cool new ones if you toss them in the right bin!
Our Headon Products packaging?
It's made of 50-70% recycled plastic. And hey, as plastic gets more recycled, it might not stay white - it could get a touch of grey.The more it's recycled, the more it shows off that cool grey vibe.
