FAIPA COSMETICS SRL

The Rome-based company, certainly one of the most brilliant and reliable manufacturers in the trichological sector on the market, always to the fore in its commitment to research and development of products at the top technical and stylistic levels, has recently celebrated its half-century. Its beginnings date back to the 1950s when, as Sapta, it began business with a wide range of haircare products, from perms to shampoos and bleaches, with the sole exception of dyes.In 1956 the Mastrelli family took over the company, changing its name to Faipa: particularly sensitive to the needs of hairdressers, the company founded a legally recognized hairdressing school in 1957 and the following year began the production of hair colourings with a cream dye, perfected three years later with a new formula. In 1972 the Petri family joined the company, which then became Faipa Cosmetics. 1977 is an important year in the history of the Rome-based company: the Sicura hair colour was created, in two versions: in coconut oil cream and wheat germ oil cream and, in its many variants. this product is still a cornerstone of Faipa Cosmetics today.The 3rd generation of owners, Paolo Petri and Flavio Mastrelli, joined the company in 1989, contributing their energy and dynamism to the continuous innovation that has stimulated the company for further improvement. The following years were technical grow and innovation with increasingly safer and perfected products: the ammonia-free Spring perm, Faicolor. tone-on-tone colouring ammonia.-free with wheat bran extract, Perfecta Pro line, a complete treatment finish line, Perfecta crme color, the first permanent colouring in the world in an ammonia-free cream with keratine, a product developed specifically to fully respect the client and the professional.
