????寶美奇

????1980年，英國造型師保羅?米切爾和護發(fā)專家約翰?保羅?迪佐利亞四處尋找轉(zhuǎn)變職業(yè)的機會。這對朋友兼合作伙伴隨后用700美元作為本錢，成立了約翰保羅米切爾系統(tǒng)公司，當時的全部家當只有一個信箱和一臺答錄機，然后她們找來一位女性朋友錄了應答信息。

????他們最早的產(chǎn)品是黑白包裝的“香波1號”、“香波2號”和護發(fā)素，當時之所以用黑白包裝，是因為彩色太貴了，但這個傳統(tǒng)卻一直延續(xù)了下來。

????1983年，他們在夏威夷買下了一片占地30英畝，利用太陽能供電的農(nóng)場。正是在那里，他們得知夏威夷土著平時用當?shù)氐囊吧獊碜o理頭發(fā)，于是他們便將夏威夷白姜當作該公司護發(fā)產(chǎn)品的原料之一。

????如今，這座夏威夷白姜農(nóng)場仍然種植著這種作物，以及其它有機水果和蔬菜。農(nóng)場和小樓也對游客開放，旅客可以在那里享受當?shù)厣L的食物。

????Paul Mitchell

????In 1980, the English stylist Paul Mitchell, and hair care professional John Paul DeJoria, were looking for a career change. The friends and business partnerslaunched John Paul Mitchell Systems with $700, a post office box, and an answering machine, enlisting a female friend to voice the outgoing message.

????The first products were Shampoo One, Shampoo Two, and The Conditioner in the black and white packaging they’re still known for, because color was too expensive.

????In 1983, they purchased 30 acres in Hawaii, a solar-powered, off-grid farm. There, they learned of the wild ginger (awapuhi) that Hawaiian natives used to soften and condition their hair, which they incorporated into the John Paul Mitchell Systems hair care line.

????The John Paul Mitchell Systems Awapuhi Farm still grows the titular ingredient used in the pair’s hair care products, as well as other organic fruits and vegetables. Today, John Paul’s and Paul’s mini-compounds at the lush retreat are available as accommodations, and guests dine on locally grown food. The farm is also open for tours.
