John Frieda is set to launch a live styling event later this week marking its biggest digitial marketing investment to date, according to Brand Republic.
Through Johnfrieda-live.co.uk, the haircare brand will stream a one-hour Live Haircare Academy on May 27 at 1pm (GMT). Consumers will be able to ask the salon experts questions throughout, while beauty bloggers will be in contact via webcam.
Caroline Wilding, product and digital marketing manager at parent company Kao Brands, said: “For our target market we know how important the digital space is in driving deeper relationships with our consumers.”
The event aims to reach 1.3m consumers through its campaign. It is being pushed via Facebook and Twitter, as well as print ads.
The concept was conceived by creative agency Brave. It is being overseen by PR company The Communications Store and digital agency Holler.
