Fudge Dare To be Different: An Interview with Glen Dean, Fudge Co-Founder

Fudge has always been about individual self expression, creativity, innovation and invention. Do things differently, experiment, create...defy all that is ordinary.

FUDGE...ANTI ORDINARY

I had a blogger interview session with Mr. Glen Dean from Sydney one of the co-founder of Fudge. It’s a small group, there are 5 of us (bloggers), Glen is very friendly and spontaneous during the whole interview session. He shared with us about how he started, touch a little about his family, his history, Fudge products and its future.  

Fudge Anti Ordinary is originated from Australia. Glen has very strong interest in hair styling at very young age. He started to work in hair salon at age of 16. How he started Fudge, Glen and two other friends got together to consult famous cosmetic chemist Ray Townsend to come out with a new product for hair styling that stick like gum. Ray formulated something that smells like English lolly, fudge. And they name it Fudge. That product is Hair Shaper.

In the 90s, no one ever catered products for gay market. Fudge we were in the Mardi Gras and went into the gay market because they were immaculate in their dressing and hair care in that period. Fudge became popular. One of the famous singer, Pink is using Fudge Paintbox for her hair color. So Fudge became more popular.

The brand caters to unisex and all types of hair be they thick, Asian or European. The products, for both styling and colouring needs, are mostly unisex although there are a few that cater specially to women.

Glen also explain that Fudge has a numbering system to simplify the holding strength of the product, ranging from 0 to 15 (the higher the number, the stronger the hold). The Product Guide leaflet also make it easier for consumer to identify what type of product that suits their hair style, texture and etc. Glen did some products demo.  

We also have the opportunity to try out the products and get Glen’s hait tips about what type of hair care products that most suitable for us. As for me, he advised I should use Fudge Pump Up to get volume and curls for my hair. We also take a tour at Shins outlet in Subang Parade.
