Philip Kingsley, the British haircare and trichology brand with over 50 years' heritage, has joined the British Beauty Council as a Patron. This move signifies the brand's dedication to shaping the future of the UK beauty sector.
As a not-for-profit organisation, the British Beauty Council lobbies policymakers on industry challenges and aims to elevate the sector's reputation. Founded in 2018 by Millie Kendall OBE, it acts as a unified voice for the industry.
The brand's patronage aligns with its British roots and forward-thinking strategy. Philip Kingsley, established in London, is recognised for its expertise in hair and scalp health. This appointment follows CEO Joseph Grigsby's November 2025 arrival, tasked with restoring the brand's authority in holistic hair and scalp care.
Millie Kendall OBE noted Philip Kingsley's journey as a British beauty success story, expressing enthusiasm for their collaboration. She highlighted the growing hair and scalp care market as a key area for joint focus. Joseph Grigsby stated the patronage is a critical step towards reclaiming the brand's leading position in holistic hair and scalp health. He sees alignment between the Council's policy work and the brand's values.
Anabel Kingsley pointed out the significant growth in hair and scalp care, alongside prevalent misinformation. She views the collaboration as an opportunity to champion evidence-based information and promote hair and scalp health as integral to overall wellbeing.
The partnership brings a specialist brand into the Council's fold, signalling a potential shift towards greater depth in specific treatment categories. While the Council champions the broader beauty industry, Philip Kingsley's involvement suggests a growing recognition of the distinct needs and educational requirements within the specialised hair and scalp sector.
