History

In 1979, Aussie was founded by Tom Redmond, an American businessman. Prior to this, he had more than 20 years of experience in the professional salon industry.[1]

When visiting Australia, Redmond realised that a wide variety of various ingredients such as Blue Gum Leaves, Australian Custard Apple, Quandong, Mint Balm, Wild Cherry Bark, and Jojoba Seed Oil could be used to produce hair products.[2]

Accordingly, Redmond was inspired to develop the first of the Aussie products: Australian 3 Minute Miracle (an intensive conditioner that claims to produce results in three minutes).[3]
