There are so many brands on the market that brands are willing to do anything to try and grab your attention. From events to activations to sales, these days it feels like there is nothing a brand won’t do. It’s hard not to get lost.
This brand grabbed our team’s attention with four words and it is all we have been able to talk about since. Ask About My RunnyPOO. What is runnyPOO? What brand uses that for marketing? When our team saw that phrase at Cosmoprof Las Vegas, we knew we needed to talk about it. We got all those questions answered and more on this episode of Volume Up.

“It was interesting asking grown adults if they have runnypoo. So what it is actually is our cleansing scalp serum and that’s kind of the unique product that we have. And what it is, is we have the cleansing properties in the shampoo so we’re using it to cleanse but also adding in what some people would replace as maybe their scalp oil or treatments….”
