Thérèse Chardin

Thérèse Chardin is a French hairstylist that was a celebrity in the 1960's and 1970's.

After working as a model, her talent as a hair stylist got noticed by "Elle" fashion editor Claude Brouet. She then opened her 500m2 hair salon on the Champs-Élysées in Paris where she welcomed stars and royalties. As a fashion celebrity, magazines in France and Italy would photograph her for their editorials.

Thérèse Chardin has worked for the international editions of "Vogue", "Elle", and "Marie Claire", working with photographers like Frank Horvat, Bob Richardson, Helmut Newton, Patrick Demarchelier and Sacha. She started working again in the late 80's mostly in New York City with the "french Diana Vreeland", Melka Treanton.

Her work is celebrated in books such as "Vogue en Beauté", [http://www.amazon.fr/dp/images/2841148890/] published in 2007, and "Bob Richardson", [http://www.amazon.com/dp/images/8889431938/] published in 2007.
