About "Gypsy Rose"

The "Gypsy Rose" range of hair products has been developed over the past 15 yrs by environmentally conscious hairdresser Karen Ellis.

Initially Karen developed her product range for personal use, after experiencing problems with her hands and skin from years of exposure to hair dyes, perming solutions, shampoos and conditioners. It was a case of leave the profession she loved or find safer alternative products to use.

 

 

 


Karen has always had a deep concern for the environment and her long term dream as a young adult to save the 'old growth forests' of the planet has propelled her and her Company along to aim to eventually be a major player to do so. Karen has over 25 years experience in the Hairdressing industry with numerous International and National awards to her credit for cutting and styling. She is also a qualified Hair Colour Specialist and accredited Aromatherapist. Her personal interests include walking,yoga and playing her Celtic Harp.

She originally started her own Mobile Hairdressing business supplying natural hair services across 2 shires and went onto create her own unique range "Gypsy Rose products. At the time she found her Mobile Hairdressing clients wanting to purchase them and went onto supply on a small scale. She then opened and ran her own salon in Wamuran which was renowned far and wide for it's natural hair services & Gypsy Rose products and hair cutting techniques. The salon was booked up 4 mths ahead for many years and because of this demand she went onto train apprentices.Meanwhile the products grew by word of mouth to over 65 outlets, this includes 12 "Organic Quality Food distributers who can also deliver 'Gypsy Rose' to your door -please see top main menu-'Outlets' for list.

Karen received recognition for her innovative shampoo at the Queensland Supermarket Product of the Year Awards 2002/03 by being a finalist in the non food section and taking out a special encouragement award.The Concept is "Back to Basics" with very Innovative products that all share a common trait -they are Multipurpose-one product has more than one use.

In 2004 the "Isle of Eire Pty Ltd" company (Eire is gaelic for Ireland)was born incorporating 'Scissorcraft' & 'Scissormagik'. In early 2006 Karen sold the salon 'Scissormagik" and continues to run 'Scissorcraft' the original manufacturers of Gypsy Rose products and now having the time to promote 'Gypsy Rose' and create new products. Karen endeavors now to make her own 'Truly All natural' hair colours for the retail market-the hardest task to cover grey hair with NO synthetics! Stay Tuned....

The popularity of range is growing all the time-hence building her new Solar powered factory and now exporting to NZ.

Karen appears in-store for Promotion days for new and existing outlets-Please see top main menu- 'Showtimes' for details .

The idea behind the Gypsy Rose products is to keep them basic, simple and natural as was done in the old says - Yes it's been done before and is being done again.
