Discover where a brand or product originates
Goldwell is a renowned professional hair care brand with a storied history originating in Germany. Founded in 1948 by Hans Erich Dotter, the brand initially gained fame with its revolutionary 'Sprühgold' hairspray, which remains a cult classic in salons worldwide today. The brand is strictly salon-exclusive, catering to professional hair stylists with specialized products for coloring, care, and styling.
Over the decades, Goldwell expanded globally and eventually became a part of the Japanese Kao Corporation in 1989. Today, Kao Corporation (headquartered in Tokyo, Japan) oversees the brand under its Salon Division. While owned by a Japanese conglomerate, the manufacturing and research hubs for Goldwell products, especially the iconic Sprühgold spray, remain centered in Germany to maintain its professional heritage and quality standards.
