We make possibilities a reality.
WHO WE ARE
TMF INTERNATIONAL INC. (TMF) has a broad mission to offer essential and safe beauty enhancements to all women and – where appropriate to children and men too. We are all about effective, premium, natural hair and beauty products. One of our companies, Joli Cameleon™ is focused entirely on the needs of women and children who are losing their hair, or have already lost it, and also frequently have to deal with skin sensitivity at the same time. In related categories we also own the Caméléon Noir™ Brand, Caméléon Homme™ SuperNatural™ and several others. Michael Leigh is the owner of TMF.
THE BASICS
TMF Hair & Beauty is part of TMF International, a California, Corporation formed in 1989. Michael Leigh, TMF’s Founder, in both the USA and UK, is also the former President of Follea of Beverly Hills (from its new beginning in January 2008 through October 2014) and created its reputation and image as the #1 premium European hair wig company during his tenure. Follea established new wholesale and retail pricing high-points and quality standards for the industry. It was also renowned for its marketing imagery. TMF’s Mission is to provide innovative, high quality Hair & Beauty Products that Accelerate the Transformation of Mind, Body and Spirit for Women & Children who want or need to wear hair every day and who have a preference for gentle, natural beauty & skincare products.
WHAT WE DO
Based in both the USA and UK, TMF is both a designer, manufacturer and importer. We search the globe for effective, premium, natural products, focused on the needs of women and children. These include those who are losing their hair, or have already lost it, and also frequently have to deal with skin sensitivity at the same time. Hair loss and skin sensitivity occur for any number of reasons, including known medical, autoimmune, nutritional, or age-related reasons. And also for many unknown reasons, making the unpredictability even more emotionally draining. We present these products to you with a straightforward, easy-to-understand approach. We also post our manufacturers recommended retail prices when working with third party resellers and suppliers.
OUR EXPERIENCE
At the time of writing, each of TMF’s Management Team members has at least 12 years collective experience working with thousands of women and children living with hair-loss and co-conditions, that frequently include skin disorders. We have experienced first-hand the very personal stories of how their lives were altered and we have been privileged to help in the recovery of confidence and self-esteem. Our reward is seeing a big smile reflected in the mirror of someone who we have been able to help.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
TMF is focused on solutions for all forms of hair additions and hair loss in women and children, and – more recently – for men too. We are here to make sure you have a choice of the finest products you need to achieve a personal transformation. We look only for premium products with natural, gentle ingredients. This may, but does not necessarily mean “organic”, a much over-used and over-hyped term today. Organic products are not necessarily gentle on the hair and skin and not necessarily very effective. Some can cause significant allergic reactions. Anyone can use the term “Natural”, so, like anything, you need to do your own research and choose a vendor that you trust.
FOR MEN
For men, looking for fine products to help them deal with similar hair loss and skin conditions, we are pleased to offer bondable thin-skin units through professional hair replacement studios! Contact us for more information.

Michael Leigh / Founder + CEO
Michael Leigh is the CEO of TMF International. TMF’s Mission is to provide innovative, high quality Hair & Beauty Products that Accelerate the Transformation of Mind, Body and Spirit for Women & Children who need to wear hair every day and who have a preference for gentle, natural beauty & skincare products.
Between January 2008 and October 2014, Michael was president of Follea, Inc. Follea is known as the manufacturer of “Nature’s Most Beautiful Hair”. During Michael’s tenure, Follea rose from an unknown company to become the leading premium European hair Brand for women who need to wear hair every day. Follea is particularly well known in the Alopecia community and Michael personally sponsored and participated in many Alopecia Areata events in the USA and Europe. Michael is also the founder and CEO of Follea (UK) Ltd.
Michael describes himself as a serial entrepreneur, with a 30-year winning track record in fields as diverse as advertising, high technology, as well as hair & beauty. He applied his business acumen to creating a following for Follea’s trademark products, after already having taken companies from start-up to public, raised over $100 million in growth funding, and turned around many troubled companies that others had given up on.
Michael’s success comes not only from his experience in managing people, finances, operations, personnel, research & development, and sales & marketing, but also from identifying, recruiting and nurturing unconventional talented individuals and putting them together to create a superstar team. A valuable lesson he’s learned along the way is that there’s a very fine line between success and failure and never to rely on what has worked in the past as an indication of what will work in the future. Michael lives with his wife in the Los Angeles area and in the South of France, speaks fluent French, and enjoys the contrasts of a multi-national heritage.
“Learn from the Past but don’t let it limit your Now – the only moment that is assured. Tomorrow is your blank canvas, to be filled with anything that you can imagine, without fear of yesterday.” – Michael Leigh, November 2014.
