While its logo (along with a former advertisement mascot) is a kangaroo, and slogan is “Add some Roo to Your Do!”, along with earlier advertisements having the voiceover of an Australian woman, the brand is not Australian owned, made, nor conducts research & development in Australia. The products are manufactured in Europe and the United States by Procter & Gamble, an American company. The brand and initial product was created by American businessperson Thomas Redmond in the late 1970s

    What is this brand? I’ve never seen this in Australia.

    And a quick search isn’t bringing up any stores stocking it in Australia.

      Its a haircare brand. They only stock in the UK and USA I believe. I was going to purchase some to support Australia but then I looked into who owns it… Its a bit misleading.

      Saw it once decades ago. It’s very rare to see here. Avoid, but you really don’t have to try.
