Interview with Kelsey Garofalo

In the heart of Colorado Springs, CO, a unique and innovative haircare story unfolds, centered around a dynamic husband/wife couple: James and Kelsey Garofalo. Their combined passion and vision gave birth to ART.kg, a haircare line designed with a singular mission – to unleash the inner artist residing in each of us.

Kelsey's journey with hair began at a remarkably young age. By 19, she was already diving deep into the world of hairstyling, demonstrating an uncanny knack for the craft. With every twist, turn, and color, she painted stories that resonated deeply with her clientele. James, a serial entrepreneur and ever-the visionary, recognized the potential to amplify Kelsey's talent and bring it to a wider audience.

The result was ART.kg. More than just a brand, it encapsulated their shared dream. James brought the strategic drive, while Kelsey poured in her deep-rooted expertise, ensuring that every product not only catered to the functional needs of haircare but also nurtured the artist within. Situated against the magnificent backdrop of the Rocky Mountains, their Colorado Springs base became a hub for innovation, drawing inspiration from the raw and artistic beauty surrounding it.

Together, James and Kelsey have cultivated a brand that aims to transcend haircare. Their debut product, which features a unique cleansing serum that serves as both a shampoo and a concentrated scalp oil, paves the for future innovation in the beauty and hair space.
