Beauty Industry Group (BIG), along with Gauge Capital, announced they have purchased the assets of HaloCouture, the creator of the popular Halo hair extension system.

“We have long admired the HaloCouture team for what they have accomplished over the past 8 years. From the early days of hand-sewing Halo products in the garage to building a solid salon network of more than 5,000 salons across the country, HaloCouture has been a class act and top-notch competitor,” says BIG CEO Derrick Porter. “We’re also thrilled to welcome Josh Owens (president of HaloCouture) to the BIG team where he will continue to run the company. I’ve met very few people who have the work ethic and devotion to a mission as does Josh; he will be an amazing partner.”
