Celebrating Diversity: Sally Beauty's Pride Month Activations
In June 2026, Sally Beauty, the go-to place for professional hair color and care, is stepping up its commitment to inclusivity by celebrating Pride Month through a series of community-centric events in Los Angeles and New York City. These activities aim to uplift the LGBTQIA+ community and create a vibrant atmosphere of self-expression and celebration.
A Month-Long Celebration
As part of its ongoing Rooted in Success initiative, which was launched in 2024, Sally Beauty invites everyone to celebrate their identities. The aim is to foster creativity, confidence, and community unity during Pride Month. Throughout June, the brand will participate in various events that include product sampling, engaging experiences, and exciting giveaways designed to inspire customers to express themselves.
Los Angeles WeHo Pride Parade
On Sunday, June 7, Sally Beauty will take part in the iconic WeHo Pride Parade in West Hollywood. With a dedicated sampling program, attendees will receive free products and gift cards as they celebrate pride and diversity. Brand ambassadors donning Sally Beauty shirts will be distributing complimentary full-size products starting from 12 PM PST at Santa Monica Blvd and N. La Cienega Blvd. Among the featured items will be China Glaze Nail Lacquer in multiple shades along with Sally Beauty gift cards - while supplies last.
NYC Pride March Experience
Later in the month, on June 28, Sally Beauty will host an interactive installation at the NYC Pride March. The activation, titled "Get the Beauty Scoop with Sally," will feature delicious complimentary ice cream, meaningful beauty products, and fun interactions for attendees. The experience will be located on 4th Avenue, near E 12th Street, and will run from 11 AM to 6 PM. The first 200 attendees will be rewarded with exclusive VIP gift bags containing favorite products from brands such as Beauty Secrets, Strawberry Leopard, Eva NYC, Dashing Diva, and Sally Hansen, while supplies last.
Commitment to Inclusivity
Chris Kobus, the Chief Marketing Officer at Sally Beauty, expressed the brand's commitment to individuality saying, "Beauty is a powerful form of self-expression and individuality. Pride is an opportunity to celebrate creativity, confidence, and community, and we’re excited to connect with consumers where they are while continuing our commitment to fostering inclusivity through Rooted in Success."
Moreover, during Pride Month, Sally Beauty will shine a spotlight on LGBTQIA+ owned and founded brands such as Good Dye Young, Kaleidoscope, Madison Reed, and XMONDO.
