Our Origin
Phoenix Hair Products didn't start in a large office or factory, but simply in Esther 's hair salon. In 2019, she took the first step toward making her dream come true. A year later, in 2020, her son Robin joined her to take over the online side and further expand the brand.

Craftsmanship as a Basis
Esther has been working in hairdressing for almost 40 years, and during that time, she's used and tested a vast array of products. It was precisely this experience that inspired her to create her own line—one with products that combine only the best qualities and truly meet the needs of both her clients and herself.

From Garden House to First Collection
Together with Robin , who embarked on this adventure with his fresh perspective and entrepreneurial spirit, Phoenix Hair Products was born. We started with one hair gel and one pomade. We did everything ourselves: developing and fine-tuning the formulas, packaging them in our garden shed, and personally delivering the first orders.

Growth and Expansion
Slowly but surely, our collection grew. Within three years, we had about 10 products in our range, and orders kept increasing. In 2023, we took a major step: moving to our first office and warehouse in Anna Paulowna. Here, we were able to not only process more orders but also further expand our collection with bestsellers like Curl Foam and our new Volume Powder.

Tested in the Salon
What's really convenient for Phoenix is that all our products can be thoroughly tested at Esther 's salon, where she still works every day. This way, we know for sure that everything we bring to market actually works – for different hair types and styles.

Today
Today, we process thousands of orders annually, boast a line of over 20 products, and thousands of customers in the Netherlands and Belgium rely on our quality. Yet, we remain close to our roots: Esther , who brings new ideas to the table with her experience, and Robin , who works daily to grow our brand.

Our Vision
Phoenix is more than a product line. It's our story of hard work, chasing dreams, and building together. We want to become a leading indie brand in the Netherlands, not just for the short term, but for the long term. And in everything we do, the customer is at the heart of everything we do – with high-quality products, personalized service, and always a little extra attention.
