The French Connection

Imagine a 14-year-old teenager, Sébastien, just beginning his internship as a wigmaker in the legendary Victorine Studios in Nice, a place where dreams of cinema and artistic creation converge.
It is here, in the shadows of the sets, that his adventure begins. At the same time, he dives into the world of salon hairstyling where each day spent perfecting his skills gives him a glimpse of a bright future.

Years later, Sébastien crossed paths with Marie, a meaningful and transformative connection. Their shared passion for hairstyling quickly evolved into an unbreakable bond. Before long, they opened their first salon with exciting beginnings but the couple did not stop there.
Skillfully juggling their salon work with studio collaborations they soon found themselves in the glamorous world of the Cannes Film Festival, preparing VIPs for their walk up the iconic red carpet. This crucial balance, achieved through careful organization, becomes their trademark as they hone it over the years.

As their expertise strengthens and their confidence grows, a deeper dream starts to take root; one day, they will become agents for other artists like themselves.

In 2016, a new chapter began when Marie and Sébastien left France and settled in Athens where they opened a new salon. Once more the magic happened, they made inspiring connections and new opportunities arose. Their expertise gained recognition and two prestigious French luxury brands selected them for collaboration, cementing their talent and reputation in the industry. These successes reinforced their conviction and this latest contract became the catalyst: it was time to pursue their dream of starting an agency.

In July 2024, in the heart of Athens just steps away from historical landmarks, their long-awaited idea came to life: “The French Connection” was born. As a bold and flexible agency, it combines artist management with production concierge services.
The duo, now accompanied by an enthusiastic team including carefully selected Greek and French hairstylists and makeup artists, embark on this new adventure.

Whether it’s a fashion show in Paris, a shoot under the Greek sun or a production on the other side of the world, this nomadic agency is ready to meet any request thanks to their extensive network. More than capable of organizing every detail and handling unexpected challenges, they offer a turnkey solution that includes filming equipment, location scouting, beauty services for talent and guests, as well as transport, accommodations, catering and administrative support.

Ultimately, Marie and Sébastien have turned their entrepreneurial spirit into a true strength. Each project becomes a new adventure and an opportunity to push the boundaries of creativity. The French Connection is more than an agency; it is the embodiment of a dream pursued and fulfilled by two passionate individuals committed to enriching the standards of their profession.
