Hair Product Labels

We’ve produced labels for a wide variety of hair products, including the following:

• • Shampoos: Labels for shampoos and dry shampoos should be water-resistant and durable, ensuring they remain intact even in wet conditions.

  • Conditioners and Treatments: Labels for conditioners, leave-in conditioners, hair treatments, hair masks, scalp treatments, and detanglers should have the right adhesives and moisture resistance to withstand frequent handling and exposure to water.

  • Styling Products: Labels for hair gels, hair sprays, hair mousses, hair creams, and volumizers should have clear and vibrant colors to stand out on store shelves and highlight the product’s effectiveness and styling benefits.

  • Finishing and Shine Enhancers: Labels for hair oils, hair serums, and hair mists should ensure oil resistance and high-quality printing to maintain their shine despite contact with oily substances.

  • Styling Aids: Labels for hair pomades, hair waxes, and hair gels should be abrasion-resistant and have a premium finish to reflect the high-end nature of these styling products.

We work with just about all hair product containers, and we make sure your labels not only fit but also hold up against water, oils, and daily handling. Some of the most common containers we work with include:

• Plastic bottles (flip-top or pump) – Perfect for shampoos, conditioners, and treatments. We recommend durable synthetics like BOPP with a laminate finish to stand up to water and humidity in bathrooms.

• Jars and tubs – Used for hair masks, pomades, waxes, and creams. Wrap-around labels with an optional lid label work well here. We suggest vinyl or BOPP with oil-resistant finishes to handle contact with thicker products.

• Spray cans and bottles – Common for hairsprays, mists, and heat protectants. Full-body shrink sleeves conform to curved or tapered shapes, while pressure-sensitive labels offer flexibility for smaller runs.

• Tubes (squeeze or stand-up) – Great for gels, creams, and styling mousses. Depending on the surface, we can use flexible film labels or recommend finishes that resist cracking as the tube is squeezed.

• Small bottles with droppers or pumps – Ideal for serums, oils, and scalp treatments. Clear or white BOPP with a gloss or matte laminate keeps labels crisp even with oily residue.

• Pouches and refill packs – An eco-friendly option for shampoos and conditioners. Labels need to flex with the package, so thin film materials are a smart choice for this format.

Bathrooms are one of the harshest environments for labels. Steam, water, and oily hands can do real damage if your labels aren’t built for it. That’s why we make sure your hair product labels are designed to last with a few key protections:

• Water-resistant materials – We often recommend synthetics like BOPP or vinyl, which resist water, humidity, and oils far better than paper labels.

• Moisture-resistant adhesives – The right adhesive keeps your label firmly in place, even when bottles and jars get wet.

• Protective finishes – Laminates or UV varnishes add a barrier against water, abrasion, and fading while giving your labels a polished look.

• Oil resistance – For products like serums, oils, or pomades, we can pair durable materials with oil-resistant finishes to keep your label from smudging or peeling.

We offer a range of finishes that protect your labels and help them stand out:

• Laminates (gloss, matte, or soft-touch) – A clear protective layer that guards against water, oils, and abrasion. Gloss makes colors vibrant, matte creates a sleek modern look, and soft-touch adds a velvety texture.

• UV varnishes – A liquid coating cured with UV light for extra moisture and scuff resistance. Available in gloss or matte, or as spot UV to highlight specific details.

• Foil stamping – Metallic accents in gold, silver, or custom colors that add a premium feel to products like serums or treatments.

• Embossing and debossing – Raised or pressed textures that give your label a tactile, high-end finish.

• Spot finishes – Use gloss, foil, or varnish in targeted areas (like your logo or product name) to draw attention where it matters most.

We offer shipping through several vendors like UPS, Fedex, and USPS. Ground, Next-Day, 2-Day, 3-Day, and custom freight options.

Before printing your custom bbq sauce labels, we will provide a digital proof via email for your approval. This allows you to review your label, confirming details like positioning, color accuracy, text legibility, and more, prior to full production. We are committed to ensuring your complete satisfaction through this streamlined proofing process.

While Blue Label Packaging does not directly offer label design services, we do have resources to help with your custom label design needs. We maintain a directory of Blue Label Approved designers who specialize in label design and understand the unique requirements and technical details involved. We also showcase a gallery of label designs for inspiration.

Our printers are capable of matching up to 97% of the full color spectrum, allowing us to achieve precise color reproduction for your beer labels. We use advanced CMYK printing to produce an extensive gamut of colors. For designs requiring an expanded range, we also print using WOVG ink sets which add white, orange, violet and green.

Our top-of-the-line color management program and processes ensure we hit the correct hues, tints and shades. We color calibrate and profile all of our presses so your unique color palettes and gradations print true to your vision.
