The hairstylist behind fashion’s most iconic shows collaborates with Zara on an accessible collection of shampoos, conditioners, and masks.
Summary
- New Zara Haircare includes shampoo, conditioner, hydrating mask, and curly-hair focused products for four types: fine, medium, thick, curly.
- Fragrance by French perfumer Jérôme Epinette; packaging borrows bold graphic design cues.
- Palau worked to keep the line simple yet inclusive; results promise softness, shine, and better curl definition, all at accessible prices.
Guido Palau is stepping into the haircare world with Zara, offering a line that doesn’t feel like a side project but something built with intention. The range includes shampoos, conditioners, a universal hydrating mask, and a curly-hair mask, all tailored to fine, medium, thick, and curly hair.
What makes it stand out is how much care has gone into the formulas. For example, the fine hair set cleanses without making hair feel weighed down. The medium version aims for shine with lightweight hydration. Thick hair gets extra moisture to smooth frizz. Curly-hair pieces bring in elasticity and curl definition. The universal mask adds depth and can be used overnight for a more intense effect.
The scent comes from Jérôme Epinette, known for his work on high-end perfumes, so the fragrance feels considered. Visually, the bottles draw from Memphis Group visual energy: bold, graphic, display worthy.
Palau says this is about more than styling tricks: he saw backstage that poorly cleansed or under-conditioned hair makes styling harder. He wanted something people can use every day that delivers a real finish.
Most striking is the price point. Each shampoo or conditioner in the line is £11.99. Palau and Zara want this kind of quality without the premium tag. It makes you rethink what “high end” hair care means when results, scent, and design are all there.
