About Us
Frends Beauty Supply was founded in 1940 by the original owner Sig Frends. Sig was a pioneer in the cosmetic industry. He recognized the fact that
Hollywood had a high demand for film quality make up, hair, and special FX make up. Frends’ goal then, as it remains today, is to supply the entertainment industry with a wide range of high quality products, giving make up and hair stylists all the necessary tools to complete any job. Today, the store is stocked with over 24,000 different products ranging from wig making supplies to special FX make up to skin care and everything in between. It really is the only true in house “one stop shop” for make up artists and hair stylists. Frends staff is dedicated to making the lives of their customers more convenient. We go “the extra mile” to make sure that a particular artist/stylist has the exact products they are looking for with ample time before their job. Our philosophy is: “the customer means everything to our business,” and we treat our customers as such. The following are some testimonials from some of our treasured customers:
“Frends has always been the most reliable cosmetic supplier I have ever worked with. They get whatever I need, whether they carry it in the store or not, and they get it to me on time, every time. When you deal with as many actors as we do, Frends makes the job easier because they give you one less thing to worry about.”
