Beyoncé Knowles-Carter's haircare brand Cécred has officially expanded from direct-to-consumer into nationwide retail, marking the biggest prestige hair launch in Ulta Beauty 's history.
The exclusive partnership, which launched on April 6, 2025, brings the 35-time award-winning brand to over 1,400 Ulta Beauty stores across the United States, along with a first-of-its-kind salon integration program. A Milestone Partnership One Year in the Making The launch represents a significant milestone for Cécred,
coming just 14 months after the brand's initial debut in February 2024. The privately held haircare line, developed over six years, has quickly established itself as a formidable player in the beauty industry.
