Professional Hair Labs Inc

What Professional Hair Labs Inc does

Professional Hair Labs Inc is a privately held specialty cosmetics manufacturer founded in 1994 and headquartered in Zephyrhills, Florida, with European operations in Wexford and Rosslare Harbour, Ireland. The company trades under Scientific Cosmetix LLC (USA) and Professional Hair Products Ltd (Ireland), and develops, manufactures, and distributes hair replacement adhesives, cleansers, scalp treatments, shampoos, sanitizers, and skin care products under brands including GhostBond, GHOSTMEDICA, GHOSTBUSTER, Ultra-Safe, Phantom, Dermal Loc, Bio Soft Loc, and PHL#5.

Its core technology centers on a proprietary water-based copolymer adhesive system that maintains bond integrity under sweat, moisture, oil, and high temperature, plus a safety-first, non-toxic formulation designed to avoid overstimulation of sebaceous glands. Recent product development includes an industry-first tinted lace wig adhesive system launched in March 2026 under the Kellon Deryck x Ghostbond Collection. Manufacturing is GMP-compliant with ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certifications displayed.

The business operates four revenue mechanics: branded direct-to-consumer e-commerce (prohairlabs.com) at $14.95–$49.95 per SKU, wholesale accounts for salons and hair replacement studios, private label and contract manufacturing services for third-party beauty brands, and celebrity/influencer co-branded product collaborations under licensing arrangements. Customers span hair replacement professionals (primary segment), individual consumers of wigs and hairpieces, and beauty brands/wholesalers seeking custom formulations. Distribution runs globally from US and EU hubs, with multilingual (English and Chinese) storefronts.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• Davines: Davines is an established Italian professional hair care brand serving salons globally; while not focused on adhesives, it competes for shelf space and salon contract relationships that PHL targets with its professional channel.
• Olaplex: Olaplex is a leading bond-building professional hair care brand using patented polymer chemistry — comparable technology backbone (specialty copolymer formulations) and overlap in the salon professional channel.
• Schwarzkopf Professional (Henkel): Schwarzkopf Professional, part of Henkel, is a global professional hair care incumbent with salon-grade styling and bonding products that competes for the same channel partners and end-stylists as Professional Hair Labs.
• Kenra Professional: Kenra Professional is a broad professional hair care incumbent distributed through salons; it competes for the same stylist mindshare and back-bar space that PHL targets with adhesive and scalp-prep SKUs.

Others

• Hair Direct: Hair Direct is named in PHL's own data as a customer/distributor that reviews and features GhostBond products. It is a peer in the broader hair replacement value chain — a hair-system retailer that bundles adhesives, removers and aftercare — and a comparable distribution channel reference.
• Beauty Industry Group: Beauty Industry Group is a major hair-extension/hair-system distributor that overlaps operationally with PHL — buying adhesives and removers for distribution and providing a peer reference point for distribution scale and channel economics in the hair replacement ecosystem.

Direct peers

• Evergreen Hair Replacement Adhesives: Evergreen produces liquid and tape hair system adhesives plus removers for salons and individuals, making it a peer in formulation and channel mix that competes with GhostBond Classic, Platinum and remover products.
• True Glue / Lace Bond Adhesives: True Glue specializes in lace wig and frontal adhesives sold directly to consumers and stylists — overlapping product category, target customer (wig wearers), and distribution (DTC e-commerce) with Professional Hair Labs.
• Walker Tape: Walker Tape is the most direct competitor to Professional Hair Labs' GhostBond — a long-established manufacturer of tape and adhesive products for hair replacement systems, serving the same salon/professional and consumer wig-wearing channels.
• Salon Grafix (Ultra Hold): Salon Grafix markets the Ultra Hold line of hair system adhesives that competes head-to-head with GhostBond in both retail and professional channels for poly and lace hairpiece bonding.
