Hair Rules started with the Texture Guru, Anthony Dickey. He carried with him a dream of celebrating all textures and the knowledge of how to do it for decades. 15 years ago he set things into motion for that dream to become reality.
The Book
In 2003, Dickey shares his knowledge and writes his first book: Hair Rules! The Ultimate Hair Care Guide for Women with Kinky, Curly, or Wavy Hair. This extensive guide of texture talk, tips, and tricks was the first step toward educating all textures on the beauty of their natural hair.
The Products
Four years post-book, Dickey releases his international product line. It revolutionizes the world of beauty by catering to all textures and their unique characteristics.
The NY Salon
Two years after the launch of Hair Rules products, Dickey opens the first and only multi-textural salon in the U.S. It becomes a product learning-lab and cultural center led by the Texture Guru himself. A place where like-minded stylists and colorists come together to set all textures free through expertise, passion, and a love for texture individuality.
