Mr. Shu Uemura

Shu Uemura Art of Hair originates from the vision of Mr. Shu Uemura, a famous Hollywood make-up artist educated in Japan. His first cleansing oil – 1967 – comes as a revolution: the perfect product to cleanse & prepare a healthy complexion for the canvas of his art – the art of beauty.

With his same unwavering passion for creating innovations in skincare and makeup, Mr. Shu Uemura expanded his beauty expertise to launch Shu Uemura Art of Hair in 2007. His goal was to highlight the artistry of hairdressing as an extension of a woman's beauty.
