The industry of the hairstyle is the second after the building and gathers more than 190,000 professionals. For this 5th edition of the Night of the Hairstyle, 2750 living rooms took part everywhere in France and in more than 30 countries in this 5th edition. They remained open until 23:00 for the occasion. The hairdressers present at the Town hall of Paris received a drier and a polisher which they could use directly on their one day old customers.

Among these hairdressers, we met one accustomed of this demonstration, Eric Leturgie who was already with the Town hall last year.

It puts at it in practice all its know–how and its technique for the greatest joy of its female customers.

A few days after the Night of the Hairstyle, on June 19th, one finds Oréal in another role, that of solidarity.  At the time of “Citizen Day”, day of solidarity created 9 years ago by the brand in collaboration with UnisCité to present the commitments between companies and associations, the chairman of Oréal, Jean–Paul Agon and about twenty employees covered a white combination and armed themselves with rollers in order to renovate the buildings of the Agora of Emmaus Solidarity located street of Hummed between Louvre and Châtelet. The reception of day receives 300 people per day and gives access to a wash–house, a shower, a cloakroom, a food aid, a domiciliation and the possibility of meeting social workers. Thanks to the mobilization of the collaborators of the group, the people with the street will be able to reinstate a refreshed place where they will be able to forget one moment the greyness of their life and to find the assistance which they need.

For CitizenDay, 5,000 collaborators of Oréal mobilized themselves for associations such as Emmaus Solidaité, Vision of the world, humane ONG which make it possible to the children to have an access to education, the food, the drinking water and the health, Weareloreal which proposes to the collaborators to act to protect the biodiversity and to maintain or restore natural spaces, etc… In France, there are already 24,000 godfathers.
