Bringing you salon-quality hair at home since 1948

TRESemmé understands how great hair gives you the confidence to walk taller every day

Delivering that feeling has driven TRESemmé since Edna L. Emme founded the brand in 1948. She embodied this confidence – the perfect role model for inspiring modern women today. Intelligent and beautiful, Edna was a rule breaker and entrepreneur - apowerful package who was admired for her beauty but remembered for her intelligence and tenacity

She was also a trailblazer for women in the workplace. Rising from the machine floor to the boardroom, she became vice-president of the Godfroy Manufacturing Company, a rare achievement in an age when executives were almost exclusively men.

It was at Godfroy that Edna launched TRESemmé – originally developed as a salon range for strong, smooth hair – and named after Edna with a well-deserved play on the French for ‘much-loved’. Having worked as a hairdresser in her sister’s salon, she knew how great hair boosts confidence.
