Franck Provost.

Fifty years ago, Franck Provost opened his first hair salon at Saint-Germain-en-Laye. “Very fast, I realized that journalists would never pass the device, so I opened the second Avenue Roosevelt.” The hairdresser does not release the task and cooperate on television, which works on the collection of the “Holy Evening” program in particular. “Shooting were in the evening or weekend, so I was chasing on my workdays.” Parades, shots, but also the movies fill his CV and expand his address book. This allows him to stylize actresses, such as Romi Schneider, Sophie Marsian, Zoe Felix or Beatrice Dall, who will open the doors of the Cannes Film Festival. Attempts he agreed to share with us.

Madame Figaro. A little What memories do you have with your first Cannes Festival?

Franck Provost. A little In the 1990s, we started styling some actresses in our living room, Franklin Roosevelt Avenue. Among them were Beatres Dalle, and we went down to styling in 1995. But then it was completely improvised. We didn’t follow, we stayed in Pierre and vacation at the seat. We hated the beach and I think that the actresses had more hosts. But we learned about work. And here’s how our story started with the festival.

How did you make names there?

We have never been an official sponsor (it was Jacques Dessangan), but on the other hand, we continued to continue next year. And he began to work with hotels and then with Dior. And finally, we have become the official sponsor of Canal + show, “No other place.” This partnership allowed us to meet many people and celebrities. It was really every day every day that allowed us to invite us to many French people at home. Finally, very quickly, we provided a day and night presence. My daughter Olivia took care of the connection, my son Fabie and I was a haircut. We were a real trio, so much that we said. “There are provinces here.”

What is your most wonderful memory?

I remember in 1996. In the evening one evening on the canni heights in Villa, where my daughter Olivia trained me. He is at some point away to greet the manufacturer’s friend. The neighbor of his table turns, and that … Sharon stone. Olivia exchanges a little with him and decides to present it to me, because the next day I had no Amfar Gala hairdressing salon. Then he whispers in my daughter’s ear. “Because your father entered the room, I only had eyes for him and listen to my neighbor.” I didn’t sleep at night, because I was impressed with the idea of ​​style, because I was impressed with the idea of ​​style. I lived a waking dream. This moment has signed the beginning and friendship of working relationships, which lasts today, because my son, Fabien, when he moved to Europe.

Sharon stone was introduced to me. The next day I styled him for Amfir. It was a dream of waking up

What memories do you keep the Cannes atmosphere?

I remember that we were doing invitations that hooked all day to be able to enter evenings. We don’t sleep. We worked day and night and the rest of the time, we used this extraordinary atmosphere. Because on the criminal, we still feel that there is nothing else that the world stops turning around 15 days. In any case, it was really a very pleasant age. We have worked but we have really had fun. And the relationship between people was different. I have the impression that there are many more problems now. And money. Today I don’t know if we can approach the star so easily. Everyone has an agent, everything is negotiated.

And what is the most direct thing you have given to Cannes?

I think we have to go and get Diane Kruger, who was shooting in Italy, and my son Fabie should be styled on a stylish plane so that he could get the Cup in 2003.

Finally, what is the festival signature haircut for you?

You need to know that there are a lot of winds and often rain in Cannes. The weather can really be founded as a huge enemy of hairstyles. Therefore, the fact that often very smooth bunks that resist everything, but also tangled hairstyles … these are sure not to move. Otherwise, it is obvious that we are at risk.
