Hitting Canadian shelves in late March, Dessange haircare is the latest European beauty import. Created by the House of Dessange—an haute salon with 500 locations in more than 45 countries—the line promises salon-quality care at home, with a focus on protecting colour (natural or not).

Dessange salons are still known around the world for their passion for colour, demonstrated in the four collections launching here:
