Unilever’s award-winning lifestyle inspiration platform, All Things Hair, sought to champion Black History Month in the US by aligning themselves with consumers seeking haircare for type 4c hair while earning quality backlinks to the site.
We created a nationwide survey for the US market following initial market research, the results of which were pitched to leading beauty and lifestyle editors to write unique, innovative stories for their readers – putting All Things Hair’s purposeful contribution at the forefront.
Initial research revealed that those with 4c hair types regularly needed to spend more time and money to access quality hair care than all other hair types in the US. We conducted a survey to gain more insight into this challenge, identifying a huge disparity in the availability and price of essential haircare options for US women with 4c hair. Using data points from the survey, we created a landing page on the site illustrating the inequalities faced by those with 4c hair and creating press assets for news, lifestyle and beauty media to report on the findings.
The digital PR campaign was picked up by media across the US resulting in 52 articles written and backlinked to ATH gaining attention and features in high-authority domains like Afro, Essence, The Huffington Post and Hola! By offering research and data-driven content based on a people-first approach, this campaign reached millions of readers with an estimated 31.3 million views – not just in the US but worldwide as we expanded digital PR activity to the Brazilian market. As a result of monthly DPR activity in the US and Brazil markets, ATH’s organic site performance grows year on year with a 156% traffic increase on the BR website and 76% on the US website compared to 2022.
