Salon Assistant

Hello, I'm Bleach London!

The meteoric rise of hair brand Bleach London is best described by Time Out as "The grungy salon that pioneered the dip-dye, then conquered the globe." The female-led, boundary-pushing business was launched by Alex Brownsell and Sam Campbell in 2010 as the world's first salon focused on colour.

With a closely knit family of international premises, ever-expanding vegan product range and intuitive digital salon services, Brownsell and Campbell have reimagined the way people approach their hair. They're on a mission to make Bleach's expertise accessible to all, so anyone can express themselves through their hair colour affordably and informatively.

To date, the company has sold over £30million worth of products in the UK alone and is carried in retailers including Boots, Cult Beauty and ASOS. The coveted Bleach brand, regularly featured in Vogue, Dazed, i-D and more, paired with its pioneering approach, marks a new era in digital beauty and at-home hair dyeing.

With a team of dedicated specialists across creative, colour chemistry, styling, retail, marketing, social, digital, data and global operations, Bleach saw a 600% D2C growth in 2020 and is set to continue to expand in 2021. New market launches including the USA will continue to reinforce Bleach's position as a leader in the £40billion hair colourant category.
