Christophe Robin: And let there be colour!

With more than ten years under his belt, as the hair colourist of the stars, Christophe Robin is now working, tucked away in the back of a quiet courtyard in the very Parisian 6th district. A large, three-story salon complex dedicated specifically to colour in all its glory and wellness in general

Just like at home

No minimalist and cold high-tech design here. Nor electro or hard music for that matter either. At Christophe Robin's, there's a "coming home effect": shiatsu armchairs, stained oak wood floors, stucco staircases, chiné objects, exhibitions featuring the works of artists... This salon complex intends to remain an open house, an oasis of wellness nestled in the back of a 17th-century building. And the concept is working! Under Christophe Robin's wings, is the most competent staff imaginable busily working away. A pedicurist, a make-up artist, a beautician and an osteopath: using their hands and make-up brushes for a holistic approach to wellness.


The colourist of the "Beautiful People"

Catherine Deneuve, Kate Moss, Claudia Schiffer, Emmanuelle Béart, Milla Jovovich, Uma Thurman... have at least one point in common: their hair colourist. For a long time, colouring has taken a back seat, but not anymore, thanks to Christophe Robin's work, it has gained in prestige. Ex-artistic Director at Jean-Louis David, consultant with L'Oréal, his knack for matching colour to personality is without a doubt a large part of the reason why the young colourist has worked with the cream of the crop. "I like to hear people say she's a beautiful woman, not that her hair colour is beautiful": all of his talent can clearly be measured by the end effect! In fact, his talent has inspired photographers and film directors who are sensitive to his natural sense for light and contrasts. Truly the hands of an artist are at work!
