Mark Clement and members of his salon were recently filmed by a South African Film crew. The documentary is focused on Paris and black hair. I was invited to attend but unfortunately could not be there. Still, I look forward to seeing the results of what is sure to be an interesting piece!
At the Salon Mark Clement you don't have to be female to get your hair done! Mark and his staff specialize in cuts for men (and kids) too. Check out this recent before and after, featuring twists!
Howard Hewett, former lead singer of the group Shalamar and his wife were at Mark Clement's salon recently. Howard's wife is a client, having found the salon through my other site, PRISSY MAG. Very cool. Very cool indeed. Too bad I wasn't there. I would have asked for some singing. I was and still am a big Shalamar fan!
I was on vacation in the Dominican Republic when I met another Parisian who recommended this salon to me. Mark is an African-American who hails from Los Angeles. The manager, Bruno, is French but speaks English fluently, so don't hesitate to call and make an appointment even if you don't speak French.
The products are fantastic in this salon also- most of the same used to in the U.S., like Revlon, Affirm,etc. Mark does perms really well, and is heavily into hair care. He actually takes the time to explain what he's doing to your hair, and why.
The location is easy to find, and the salon is brand new. You feel good here. It's like going back home in away.
