Over the years, hairdressers such as Vidal Sassoon, Raymond Bessone, Nicky Clarke and John Frieda have become household names, known for their celebrity clients and fancy salons.

Mr C expertly styled the hair of high-society women, and was so revered that it’s said the French created the word coiffeur, meaning hairdresser, especially for him.
