Fathom x Shu Uemura: Achieve Salon-Quality Hair On the Go

Fathom x Shu Uemura: Achieve Salon-Quality Hair On the Go

Like so many of you, Team Fathom is always on the go. For us, travel isn't just about navigating security lines and haggling at souks; it's also about beating the clock to cross town at rush hour on any given Tuesday — and looking good while doing so.

When cult haircare line Shu Uemura asked us to collaborate on a video for their limited-edition Hair Essentials On the Go kit, which contains travel sizes of their most popular products, Volume Maker and Essence Absolue, we made a list of all those moments in transit when a good hair trick would come in handy. Shu Uemura showed us that with the right products, it would only take a minute to transform our looks. Have a look:

WIN IT!

We're giving away five limited-edition kits to a few lucky readers.

  • Discover the Cyclades: Beyond the Postcard View
