The Creator of Dessange International was a brilliant French mind. Jacques Dessange– pioneer of cinema’s most loved hairdos – devoted his life to embellishing women’s hair.

Stemming from an adolescence involved with WWII, Dessange moved with the singular purpose of enriching beauty through the best of haircare. It is said that he always had hair on his mind.

The man behind Jean Seberg’s distinctive pixie cut and Brigitte Bardot’s iconic beehive, Dessange triumphs of tending to the highest order of clients, being the Official Hairdressing Partner of the Cannes Film Festival, Paris Fashion Week among several.

Jacques Dessange was the mastermind behind tousled dos – designed to let women’s hair breathe and flow more naturally. This was the beginning of a new era in cinema and style. A dyeing technique that creates the impression of sun-kissed hair and one of the earliest steam hair straighteners were other creations he pioneered over a career spanning half a century.
