The global hair care business founded by Grimsby ‘hairpreneur’ Shaun Pulfrey brought in record sales in the year it was bought from the Dragons’ Den reject.
Tangle Teezer saw revenues hit £43.5 million in 2021, with the deal with Mayfair Equity Partners completing in the July. It was up 47 per cent on the £29.6 million brought in during 2020, with earnings lifting 67 per cent to £9.7 million.
The innovation in detangling brushes had been dubbed hare-brained on the BBC pitch, but Mr Pulfrey’s faith in what he had brought forward has paid enormous dividends.
