kimrobinson Gives Accessories a New Look

There is much to expect from kimrobinson studio when it comes to hair and beauty. However, where some studios come up short with styling, kimrobinson has always shone. With hair accessories that were designed by Kim Robinson himself, the handmade bands, clips, and pins add color and personality. By taking stylish, chic looks and blending them with function, kimrobinson has re-awoken the age of hair accessories that are suitable for all occasions.


Ranging from items such as his personal favourites: hair candies, claw hairbands, and pony claws, Kim Robinson has designed his accessories to play up a hair style without being overwhelming. As part of the kimrobinson philosophy, it is their goal to make every woman look and feel great. With the collections available from kimrobinson, finding an accessory that complements both classic and trendy styles is simple.


Hair candies are mini claw clips that are adorned with crystals or studs in order to bring a pop of color to a wide variety of hairstyles. kimrobinson’s headbands instantly lift hair for added height as well as giving the illusion of a 1960’s bouffant style while the pony claw not only adds volume like the bands, but also secures ponytails for a bold statement.

Made of resin acetate, neither claws nor headbands will snag hair or hurt a person’s head. In fact, due to the product it is made from, the bands will conform to the shape of their head so that it is as comfortable as possible. Due to the accessibility and comfort of the accessories, finding the appropriate item from kimrobinson to spice up a hairstyle is easy.

China’s Digital Success Presents Business Opportunities


China continues to surprise the rest of world; its fast paced growth and dynamic economy of immense scale staggers many outside its borders. Its latest epic accomplishment is achieving record breaking sales through online channels that dwarf the U.S. and Europe in volume and XXX penetration.

It was only a few years back that the banking industry in China could barely support the simplest of transactions and credit cards were limited, and to a large degree this is still true. China was able to bypass these hurdles by embracing digital solutions. Online payment gateways and using credits to top up accounts are some of the ingenious methods driving an online sales boom.

In 2011 over 70% of registered internet users had made an online purchase. Put into numbers that is more people than are in the United States in total. According to iResearch, Alipay “Express Payment” was the most used express payment method used in 2011.


The total sales for 2011 was over 800 billion Yuan or more than 125.5 billion US$. That is a staggering figure from a country with limited banking and logistics that is still primarily driven by scooters and bikes.

The growth is continuing to accelerate. In the next three years the online sales will be expected to triple to over 360 billion US$ per year.  Not since the days of Sears and Roebuck in the 19th century in America did we see such a growth in sales where goods and people were not in the same place.



Knowing how to navigate China’s digital world is essential to any brand’s success. PRDA is experienced in helping brands find their voice online.

kimrobinson’s Texture Restoration System Puts an End to Frizzy Hair


The hot season would seem like a difficult time for hair if it were not for Kim Robinson and his team. Along with gorgeous sunshine and endless outdoor opportunities comes the price of humidity, which does not do wonders for hair. Incessant frizz, no control, and loss of shine are just a few examples of what happens when summer arrives. Yet not all hope is lost when it comes to taming out of control strands and kimrobinson has the answer.


Just when nothing seems to work, fabulous hair is still very possible. kimrobinson’s signature patented Texture Restoration System treatment restores hair, giving it a sleek and glamorous shine. The Texture Restoration System is applied to each strand individually which takes around an hour to complete in the kimrobinson studio, but it lasts for up to five months after letting it set for two days which easily gives the person a worry-free, humid summer.


Free of harsh chemicals, the Texture Restoration System treatment from kimrobinson is designed to improve and help lock in the natural moisture of hair rather than damage it. Without the presence of chemicals and formaldehyde, the formula will protect hair instead of making the problem worse. The Texture Restoration System is delivered to the hair in a natural state and it is because of these significant differences that the keratin treatment should not be confused with relaxers.

Offered for the first time in Hong Kong, this Texture Restoration System treatment is very popular in the western continents of Europe and the United States. It is available at kimrobinson for men and women alike so that everyone may enjoy a frizz-free summer season.

The Benefits of Business Sustainability Goes Beyond Expectations

Building a sustainable business does more than just help the environment, as Accor hotels has demonstrated. Both consumers and employees look to support green growth by choosing eco-friendly companies, becoming a sustainable business provides a range of benefits. There are many reasons to make a green transition.

Cost efficiency is a big reason to push for companies to be moreenvironmentally aware . By investing in energy-efficient light bulbs and eco-friendly technology, the Group’s hotels expect to reap long-term benefits, as these items tend to be more efficient and last longer.  Today, 65% of Accor’s hotels have already made the change to energy-saving light bulbs, a number that is expected to grow following the launch of PLANET 21, the Group’s sustainable development program.  PLANET 21 seeks to reduce energy use by 10% between 2011 and 2015.  Aside from energy-saving lamps, other initiatives to achieve these goals include charging stations for electric cars – these have already been deployed at six Novotels in France, as well as properties in Korea and Australia.


Along with reducing a company’s environmental footprint, employees of sustainable businesses have also shown greater job satisfaction. By providing the best possible work atmosphere, the mood of the company’s employees at large brightens. Accor  has conducts regular employee opinion surveys, provides training to help employees with work-life balance and stress reduction and educates them on health prevention best practice.   These efforts are designed to improve satisfaction, retention, and morale.


Probably the most important reason business owners see the advantage of going green, is that sustainable businesses tend to have the competitive advantage. A large number of customers are no longer considering the ‘easy’ route of an every-day carbon-producing, water-consuming business. Many people understand the need for sustainable business and will choose it over its leading competitor in order to encourage continuous growth.

Summer Beauty Tips from Paul Gerrard Salon

Are you feeling it yet? We do. Summer is indeed in full swing in humid, boiling Hong Kong. Though the wonderful typhoon Vicente cleared up the pollution a little, it is still hard work for us fashionistas to become and stay fabulous, all the time.
Let Paul Gerrard Salon come to the rescue with these handy tips.
Summer = oily skin? You bet. While you may be tempted to over-wash your face, drying out your skin will only trigger more oil to be produced. Instead, a regular regimen of cleansing, toning, moisturising, and exfoliating will go a long way to whip your skin into a clean, translucent shape…

If you want to avoid the damaging UV rays of the sun, but still accomplish that to-die-for summer glow, Paul Gerrard Salon has just what you need. Contradicting wishes? Not quite. What you need is a product line which:
●   Is all natural and mineral-based
●   Contains SPF 15 or higher in several of its foundations, powders, and tinted moisturisers
