The Ask.
Studio Beauty developed and executed a pre-launch and launch strategy for ARKIVE Headcare by Adam Reed to enter into the US market.
Fusing Adam Reeds longstanding, international industry reputation with creating a unique self care emporium committed to the concept of “Headcare”, we cemented Adam as one of the celebrity stylists to know in 2022 and beyond.

Making “Headcare” the new Haircare.
In a moment where Americans are more stressed than ever and stress related skin issues are at all time high, ARKIVE Headcare delivered a unique perspective on hair care to the US market
To launch, we built ”Headcare” spaces throughout New York City,, taking over a suite at the 1 Hotel on Central Park for 3 days of intimate VIP appointments and hosting a 4 day pop up at Space NK in Bloomingdales in Soho.
