Seven women have filed a lawsuit against celebrity hairstylist Frédéric Fekkai and his former employee, alleging that they facilitated Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse. The women claim they were sent to Fekkai’s salons for hair services at Epstein’s request, suggesting that Fekkai groomed them under Epstein’s directives.
Fekkai’s representative, Mark Herr, has strongly denied these allegations, asserting that Fekkai has done nothing wrong and had no knowledge of any Epstein-related activities involving victims. The lawsuit names Fekkai and his company, as well as former employee Patrick Coombs, filed in New York Supreme Court.
According to the allegations, Fekkai’s salons were used as venues for actions connected to Epstein’s trafficking operation. The plaintiffs are seeking financial damages and legal fees, while two women who are part of the lawsuit shared their experiences with CNN, highlighting troubling interactions during their salon visits, which seemed to have been directed by Epstein.
The plaintiffs’ complaints further reference a statement from Rep. Thomas Massie, who named Fekkai among individuals suggested for investigation in relation to Epstein. The women’s allegations detail that their appearances were styled in a manner catering to Epstein’s preferences, including hair color and style that made them look younger.
