Straight to the Point
Yves Durif has established himself as a featured artist and educator at national and international styling shows ad events, including Montreal ABA, Aveda Congress, IBS New York, Prestige Paris, and Inter-coiffure New York. Educator and Creative Consultant for Profound Beauty, Yves shares his technical expertise in his series of Straight to the Point classes. He continues to travel extensively, facilitating technical workshops for advanced stylists and educators.
Yves Durif gets “Straight to the Point” with his unique fusion of French and English techniques, the result of which is a strong cut with soft lines. He believes that a variety of tools – scissors, razor, comb and clippers- can be used in a hair style. His technical skill is unequalled, and his creativity is evidenced by his ability to individualize unique looks for every client.
Durif’s infamous technique has garnered the trust and loyalty of a discerning, sophisticated clientele ranging from downtown style-setters and artists to elegant Upper East Siders. Some of his more prominent clients include Amy Fine Collins, Nina Griscom, Emma Thompson, Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski, Daphne Guinness, Nancy Friday, Nancy Novogrod, and Erica Jong, among others.
Yves Durif’s artistic style has been featured many times in trade magazines American Salon, and Salon News.
