Martial Vivot opened the first men's salon in New York in 2008 — the privacy and
comfort men want, at the standard of the world's great houses.
Martial Vivot, founder
Martial Vivot's career began at fifteen with a four-year apprenticeship in France,
where he was named best apprentice by the French hair academy.
He trained at the Toni & Guy Academy in London and earned his Master's degree in
France before moving to New York in 1999, where he quickly became the stylist of
choice for many of Manhattan's most influential men, and the authority on men's
grooming for GQ, Vogue Hommes and New York.
In July 2008 he opened Salon Pour Hommes — the first men's salon in the city to
pair real privacy with the caliber of service found at the great houses. In 2016,
co-owner Jerome Obry opened the second salon in the West Village. Today the two
Manhattan salons carry the same standard.
