Project
Details
Project Hair Only is a hero line of hair products specifically crafted for women from the Middle East region. Every element, from the name to the strategy, packaging, product range, and design, was developed from scratch to resonate deeply with the target audience. The name Hair Only cleverly plays on the words "Her Only," emphasizing a personal connection with women who want a reliable, go-to solution for their hair needs. The star product, a dry shampoo nicknamed “Hairblow in a can,” is designed to be her best friend between washes, instantly refreshing the hair, absorbing oil, and adding volume with a luxurious scent. Hair Only is all about empowering women to feel confident and effortlessly fresh, every day.
Challenge
The challenge behind Project Hair Only was to conduct in-depth market research and develop a complete brand that resonates with women in the Middle East markets. We started with understanding the unique preferences, needs, and beauty routines of women in this region. From there, every element was meticulously crafted: the name, tonality, product range, packaging, and strategy were all designed to align seamlessly with cultural values and lifestyle demands.
Goal
The name Hair Only was intentionally chosen to sound like "Her Only," symbolizing the exclusive bond between the brand and its consumers. The flagship product, a dry shampoo known as “Hairblow in a can,” was formulated to provide a quick and convenient refresh between washes, absorbing oil and adding volume with a luxurious fragrance—perfect for the busy lifestyle of women in the region. The brand is a celebration of effortless beauty, addressing the specific needs of Middle Eastern hair and delivering solutions that fit seamlessly into everyday life.
Result
The result of Project Hair Only is a successful lifestyle product that goes beyond serving just busy women. It has also become a game-changer for individuals recovering from surgeries or dealing with health conditions that make daily showers challenging. By offering a convenient, effective solution to refresh hair without washing, Hair Only empowers people to maintain confidence and comfort in various life situations. Additionally, Hair Only addresses an important environmental aspect—water conservation. By extending the time between hair washes, the product helps reduce water consumption, making it not only a beauty essential but also an eco-friendly choice. This dual impact—enhancing convenience for diverse lifestyles and supporting ecological sustainability—has established Hair Only as a brand that truly cares about its consumers and the world they live in.
