Frédéric Fekkai, International Hair Expert and Accomplished Entrepreneur

For almost three decades, Frédéric Fekkai has shaped the international beauty landscape. Born in France, Frédéric rapidly rose through the beauty ranks. Instead of performing a “signature cut”, Frédéric became the master of customization. Frédéric’s vision extended beyond running a salon when he realized that women spared no expense on their complexions, but the majority of haircare products were purchased at the drugstore. With a nod to prestige skincare, Frédéric decided to extend the luxury hair experience from his salon into clients’ homes with a product collection. Frédéric Fekkai evolved from a salon owner and stylist with an impressive roster of clients to a luxury lifestyle brand.
