Vidal Sassoon gets in lather with P&G

Vidal Sassoon, the 1960s hairdressing icon, says he is to sue consumer products company Procter & Gamble. He has taken them to court, in the US district court for the central district of Los Angeles, for failing to promote hair care products carrying his name and for breaking their contract.

"I feel betrayed," Mr Sassoon said in a statement. "They assured me that my name represented a billion-dollar brand, and 1 trusted their marketing- Instead, they systematically ruined sales of my products."

Procter & Gamble, however, said it was "disappointed" that Mr Sassoon had chosen to bring the case against them. "We have consistently supported this business and we don't believe his case is valid," the company said.

Vidal Sassoon claims that P&G neglected his brand in favour of other brands such as Pantene. The reason for this was that P&G have to pay royalties to Vidal Sassoon for the use of his name; this is not the case with Pantene products. Pantene is now the world's biggest hair care brand.

A spokesman for Mr Sassoon said the Sassoon product range, including shampoos, gels, sprays and conditioners, had worldwide sales of nearly $470m at its peak in 1995.

Sassoon's lawyers are asking for the termination of Sassoon's contract, and an unspecified amount of money for damages.
