Customizable Beauty
The concept of
customizable beauty isn't something new. Prescriptives Cosmetics did it long before it became business as usual. And so did BITE Beauty, and so on, and so on. In today's shopping climate, companies view bespoke beauty as another way to give customers a unique shopping experience that no longer involves cookie-cutter products that claim to deliver exactly what you want, but instead, caters to your exact unique needs because you picked them. Ears perk up yet? From personalized makeup, skin care, fragrance, and yes, hair care, time will tell if this made-to-order shopping model is sustainable for the long-term. Adding to this concept of
customizable beauty, and unwittingly feeding the beast of self-centeredness is

Why You'll Love It
In a survey conducted by Cloud 10 Hair Care of 1000 women ages 18 to 35, 77 percent of respondents indicated they would prefer to purchase shampoos and conditioners customized for their hair care goals.
Looks like Joe has tapped into a real need here, which leads me to strongly believe that this trend is here to stay. My thoughts on the products? I enjoyed the quick checkout process to create my own shampoo and conditioner. When they finally arrived, the smell of coconuts was in the air...my choice of formula fragrance. I have a feeling that after all the contents of both bottles are gone, I'll hold onto them simply because my name is on them. The formulas I chose were to manage dry, dull hair and deeply moisturize it while leaving it lustrous. All of the above was achieved, and then some I'm happy to say.
