______________

Exclusively for haircare professionals, Cotril is an Italian brand specializing in the production of high-end hair products. Perhaps you've already encountered it at a social event where you were working? In any case, at Gouiran Beauté, we offer Cotril products in the areas of coloration, styling, and shampoos & treatments.

Glamour, Fashion, and Luxury: The Iconic History of Cotril

The Cotril institution was founded in 1971 in the Lombardy region of Italy. With a name that literally means "Cosmetic Tricologycal Laboratory," the brand builds its DNA around cosmetics and research. But not just any cosmetics: luxury professional hair care products.

Cotril's history is not insignificant; it is intimately linked to fashion and cinema. Thanks to the sophistication, quality, and glamour of its products, within a few years, Cotril established itself as one of the most iconic brands used in films, on red carpets, in dressing rooms, and backstage at fashion shows.

The products designed are governed by high standards of rigor, ethics, and quality. This helps to minimize their environmental impact while respecting each person's beauty! Competence, seriousness, and professionalism are therefore the keywords.

An independent company with 100% made in Italy production, Cotril somewhat expanded its offer in 2003. This is how it opened the CTL Spa division, an innovative solution for tailor-made hair products. In a way, white label products. CTL handles all stages of the production process: development, design, manufacturing, and delivery. Just like Gouiran Beauté does with My Label!

Today, Cotril stands out for its solid experience, which allows it to be a partner of the Cannes Film Festival and the Venice Film Festival.

Cotril, an international reference

Cotril owes its success to its ability to make everyone dream, hairdressers and clients alike, by offering not only quality products but a whole imagination linked to the world of Italian glamour and luxury.

Now, all over the world, many people appreciate and want to work with Cotril products. Celebrities, big brands, hairdressers... The brand can be proud of the global renown of its treatments and its Milanese laboratory. Its journey and investments have paid off, as Cotril has now become an international reference in hair care.

In 2021, the company celebrated its 50th anniversary, an opportunity for it to take stock:

• a presence in over 30 countries, with dominance in salons across 11 global markets
