Charlie

Charlie (1956). French hairdresser. Very trendy at the end of the 1990s. At the age of 17, she began working with Rosy and Maria Carita in their Paris salon. Appreciating her talent, they passed on to her the wisdom of the profession. For 20 years she would comb and create the hairdos for models for their “poses” in the studios of Avedon, Gilles Bensimon, Isserman, and Newton. She cut the hair of Catherine Deneuve when the actress decided on her “new look.” In 1991, the great hairdresser Alexandre offered her a personal space in his atelier. Later, she opened her first salon on Rue Goethe, in the 16^th arrondissement, and called it “Charlie en particulier.” To be combed by her it is necessary to reserve four weeks in advance. Towards the end of the 1990s, a cut cost 600,000 liras, or about $300.00.
