Antoni Cierplikowski (1884 – 1976) was a Polish hairdresser who became the world's first celebrity hairdresser when he opened the salon Antoine de Paris in Paris and became known as Monsieur Antoine. Among his clients were world-famous female personalities like Coco Chanel, Queen Marie of Romania, Sarah Bernhardt, Greta Garbo, U.S. First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, and Brigitte Bardot.

Early life

Cierplikowski was born in Sieradz, Poland, and learnt hairdressing by working for his uncle in Łódź. In December 1901, he moved to Paris, France. He married Berthe Astier on 24 January 1909 in London, England, where they were both learning English.

Career

After moving to Paris, Cierplikowski worked in the salon at Galeries Lafayette. During the summer season, he worked in Deauville, following the high society of Paris who vacationed there. In 1904, he created a stylish coiffure for Lily de Moure when she lost her fashionable hat. Her appearance without a hat on the arm of a royal prince caused a sensation; other fashionable ladies soon decided to have their hair styled by Cierplikowski.

In 1909, Cierplikowski started a fashion for a short bob cut which was inspired by Joan of Arc. In the 1920s, he introduced the shingle cut which became popular with daring young women — the Bloomsbury set and flappers. In 1924, he dyed his dog's hair blue. This blue hair was taken up by the first professional interior designer, Lady Elsie De Wolfe Mendl, which started a new fad. He created the “garconne” hairstyle for the likes of Coco Chanel, Josephine Baker, and Edith Piaf. His creations were rumoured to cost up to 500 francs - more than £1,000 in today's money. In the 1930s, he introduced blonde highlights and a style of upswept hair.

In 1924, Cierplikowski opened a salon at Saks Fifth Avenue in New York which became the most fashionable hair salon in America. Other famous hairdressers, including Sydney Guilaroff, established their reputations there. The peak of Antoine's career was the coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth in 1937, when he supervised 400 coiffures in one night.

Later life

After the death of his wife in 1973, Cierplikowski returned to his birthplace, Sieradz, where he died in July 1976.

Terrible product to buy! Total scam
Color: White
These printers are terrible printers, cheapa made printers, and takes forever to print and prints are horrible. When you return them takes forever to get your refund. I paid $40 to ship it so they won’t come up with nonsense, and they charged me $68 return fees! This is as scams as they come. You send customers garbage and charge them when they returned them? 🤮 sick.

*Changed my review*
Color: White, Color: White
7/19- So, after I got the mess cleaned up, I decided to go ahead and attempt to add the other colors. Those colors did not make a mess everywhere or leak out so I came to the conclusion it was the black ink bottle that was the issue. Finished setting up the printer and it works and prints beautifully! 7/18- WHY IS MY INK LEAKING ALL OVER THE PLACE! I’m scared to put any of the other colors in it. This is a waste of product and $$$$. Putting ink in a printer should not be this messy! I’m so furious right now.
