About French hairstylist Yann Beyrie
Born and raised in the South of France, the salon’s founder and director Yann Beyrie grew up in a family who shared a love and passion for hair and fashion. His hairstyling journey began in Paris as an assistant. From there, he progressed to become both an educator and director for a renowned French hair salon.
Yann continued to pursue his dream in London, where he worked on fashion shows and magazines. Through those channels, he was able to showcase his abilities in high-end editorial fashion shoots. In his 17 years of experience, he’s collaborated with influential hairstylists, designers, photographers and celebrities including Justin Timberlake, Jean-Paul Gaultier and Vivienne Westwood. He was also part of Vidal Sassoon London, as well as the London team of prestigious UK brand Trevor Sorbie.
Six years ago, Yann decided to launch his namesake salon in Wisma Atria. Since its opening, the chic and minimalist salon has won multiple awards for its high standards and creativity. We chat to the charming founder and director, who is now based in Singapore.
What brought you here?
I started working at a very young age and always knew that I wanted to open my own salon. Singapore is an amazing country! I wanted a new challenge and a new culture to experience, so I found myself here. In the midst of the first year of my salon opening in Orchard, I had a beautiful surprise that I was going to be a father of twin daughters. So, besides hair, I have my family as another passion that means a lot to me.
How did you get into the hairstyling industry?
My family, particularly my uncle, inspired me to get started. He was a very talented hairdresser who ran his own salon successfully back in the south of France for decades.
