OUR STORY
ARTEEZE was founded by a dynamic trio. Each founder encompassing artistic experiences, distinct backgrounds, and innovative ideas to create the brilliant experience of ARTEEZE- Hong Kong’s first digital comprehensive beauty and grooming service company, ON DEMAND, and at your fingertips!
Kathy Lee, founder and creative extraordinaire, has been immersed in the hair and beauty industry for the past 20 years. Her experiences span from Toni & Guy, where she served as Style Director at the headquarters in Hong Kong in Central, as well as her extensive international travels for her private clientele base, which took her around the world. Kathy eventually decided she needed change and joined The Four Seasons QG Private i.
In 2017, Kathy and a business partner launched Style Brigade, a digital one-stop shop platform that offered hair styling and beauty services at the convenience of your home. Early 2020 prior to Covid19, Kathy acquired the company entirely, as sole owner. This year, she decided it was time to expand her digital platform, now ARTEEZE.
After mentioning her business ideas to one of her clients of 10 years, Darren Au-Yeung, Darren seized the opportunity of investing in this brilliant venture. Darren’s aesthetic vision, professional background in interior design, approach to working with clients and understanding clients’ tastes and lifestyles gives him a unique perspective and makes him a creative asset to the company.
Henry Chung, once Kathy’s apprentice at Toni & Guy, moved back to Hong Kong after his extensive training with Toni & Guy headquarters in Manchester, UK. Kathy and Henry’s business relationship developed through understanding and adaptability to this fast pace industry, similar artistic vision, and strong work ethic. His expertise lies in operations management with his expert recruitment of the best of the best to join our team. After keeping in touch throughout the years, Henry is now an investor and a founder of ARTEEZE.
When everything had shut down due to COVID19, our founders decided there had to be a way to provide effortless services at the safety and leisure of your home and convenience. As all three are pet lovers and have pets of their own, concerns for the well-being of their furry loved ones came to discussion. It was imperative to limit exposure while strategically saving time…so they decided that ARTEEZE needed to offer, hair, beauty AND pet grooming. Pet grooming not only encompasses basics such as bathing and cuts, but also the importance of teeth cleaning. As innovative thinkers, the marvelous idea of pet teeth cleaning WITHOUT sedation will sure to be the trademark of ARTEEZE.
The concept of grooming both clients and pets mark the first of its kind. ARTEEZE was born.
