Matrix was founded in 1980 by the American husband & wife hairdressing team, Arnie and Sydell Miller. Before he founded Matrix, Mr. Miller was a hairdresser for more than 20 years. Mr. Miller decided to try his hand at running a different kind of company in 1971, when he developed individually applied eyelashes. He formed a firm, Ardell, to market the product to retailers and to beauty salons. Ardell eventually created and sold a hair color product.
In the late 1970s, Mr. Miller saw that the retail market was shrinking and decided to sell Ardell in 1980 in order to concentrate on building Matrix, marketing its products only to professional hair-care buyers.
Now, over two decades later, their original ideas still stand strong and Matrix is committed to the development of the salon professional & offers a wide range of haircare, haircolor and hair texturizing products.
