Led and managed the internal creative team.
Kenra Professional is a salon-exclusive haircare brand with more than 100 years of heritage, serving professional stylists through performance-driven products, education, and creative inspiration. Distributed through major professional and specialty retail partners, including Ulta, the brand maintains a clear focus on the professional salon community.
As the brand portfolio expanded, Kenra Professional needed a clear brand architecture that could unify the parent brand while allowing individual sub-brands to maintain distinct roles. The challenge was to create cohesion across the system while consistently pushing Kenra Professional’s mission, values, and professional positioning into each sub-brand.
