Dove® Hair Care Celebrates Color At Park City’s Film Festival

Dove® Hair Care Celebrates Color At Park City’s Film Festival
Launches NEW Color Care Collection with Video Short and Pop Up Salon

ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., January 17, 2013 – Color can be magical in making the ordinary seem extraordinary. It has the power to express feelings, describe smells and illustrate textures. Some say yellow conjures images of sunshine beating down on their face, while others say blue evokes the feeling of diving into cool blue water. Dove® Hair is premiering a new video short that celebrates the many meanings of color at the Dove® Color Care Salon this weekend. The salon, part of the Talent Resources Gifting Suite open January 18-20, 2013, brings color to the winter white landscape of Park City’s premiere film festival and marks the launch of the NEW Dove® Color Care collection that keeps colored hair vibrant for up to eight weeks*.

“Just like films have the power to enthuse viewers with their vibrant and colorful storytelling, the Dove® Color Care collection inspires women to experience the vibrant feeling of color,” said David Rubin, Director, Unilever Hair Care. “This makes the Park City film festival the ideal backdrop for introducing women to our new Dove® Color Care collection and video short.”

Feeling is Believing
At the Dove® Color Care Salon, women will receive a nourishing wash and blow dry with new Dove® Color Care products. Celebrity stylist Matt Fugate will be on-hand offering expert hair services and tips for maintaining vibrant and luminous color. Women will also be able to have fun adding a pop of vibrant color to their hair with clip-on colored hair pieces.

Attendees will get a first-look at the Dove® Color Care video short, a 60-second commercial, that chronicles real woman Kate Crofts as she describes what different colors represent to her and how these make her feel. Kate explains how changing her hair color brings out various sides of her personality and how the feeling of freshly-colored hair can make even normal things seem more vibrant. Blind since birth, Kate’s inspirational narrative is filmed among vivid scenery to show how she experiences color. It will begin running online later this month.

Experiencing Vibrancy at Home
Women not in Park City this weekend can still participate. Whether a radiant red, buttery blonde, bold brunette or other hue, there are several ways women across the country can experience Dove® Color Care including:

Keep the Color Vibrant, Keep the Feeling
Dove® Hair is committed to providing advanced hair care solutions to deeply nourish and replenish hair experiencing dryness and damage. Winter weather can take a toll on colored hair, making it appear dull and not as vibrant. The key to keeping that “just-colored” feeling this season is nourished hair and the Dove® Color Care collection keeps color vibrant for up to 8 weeks*, leaving hair luminous, soft and strong.

Dove® Color Care products contain a unique combination of ingredients designed to nourish and repair hair to help maintain beautiful looking color. Fiber Actives** in the formula penetrate deep inside the colored hair strand to reconstruct damaged proteins, while Micromoisture Serum nourishes the outside cuticle layer leaving hair luminous, soft and strong. The Dove® Color Care collection is comprised of four products available in food, drug, club and mass retailers: Dove® Color Shampoo, Dove® Color Care Conditioner, Dove® Color Care Daily Treatment Conditioner, Dove® Color Care Leave on Conditioner.
