Bed Head
Bed Head is a line of haircare and nail products distributed by TIGI Linea, a division of Unilever, to distributors and salons worldwide. The United Kingdom-based company, TIGI Linea has been producing the line since the inception of the company. The creators of the line are British stylists Toni & Guy.[1] The cosmetics line was first produced in 2003.[2] A line produced by the company, called Boby by Bed Head, was released and is under a UK patent.[3] Other lines produced by the company are being distributed by the Helen of Troy company as of May 2007.[4] As of July 2007, the product line was chosen to be used by the world-famous Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders.[5] Before starring in the American TV show Passions, Central American actor Adrian Bellani was a spokesperson and model for the products.[6]
In March 2003, the producers of the products and Health Canada issued a notice about counterfeit products being sold in Canada. The recalled products said to contain Enterobacter gergoviae or Burkholderia cepecia, which at most causes infections if applied to the eyes.[7][8] This case, along with others, is one motivation to toughen the intellectual property laws in Canada.[9]
Starting in 2011, Bed Head partnered up with Villy Custom to build custom luxury fashion bikes for their brand to promote it.
