Summer of Love
Posted by Anthony Leonard Salon | Filed under Events, Hair Products, Media, Movies, Music, Products, Services
Donna Summer was beyond an icon. Her music and legacy will be remembered for generations to come. She was the real queen of disco and known for her beautiful voice. Many of us cherish our own memories dancing and singing along to one of her numerous hits. When we hear her music, it always takes us back to that special place. We will listen to her music always, and keep the memories that it brought along forever!
R.I.P. Donna Summer

Sassoon
Posted by Anthony Leonard Salon | Filed under Events, Hair Products, Media, Movies, Products, Services
If you don’t look good we don’t look good, that was the motto of a legend in the beauty world known as Mr. Vidal Sassoon!
The super short boy like pixie on “Rosemary’s Baby” stunner Mia Farrow along with Mary Quant and Vogue editor Grace Coddington’s five point Bobb was his signature wash and wear haircut, it was beyond modern in a time when bouffant and flips where all the rage!
Vidal Sassoon will be missed, but his inspiration was viral and he will be remembered for a look that is as recognizable as the name that made it famous R.I.P.

Chances are as your reading this our creative director, Leonard Zagami, is either being whisked off on a privet jet with a pop star, meeting with a high fashion designer to create a new look for the New York City catwalks, keeping up with an A-list actress on a press junket or cutting a Broadway diva’s locks in her dressing room backstage!!!
Just another day at the salon?? Never!!!
Leonard’s artistic inspiration changes just as quick as the beautiful flower arrangements that he makes time to always look perfect in his Madison Avenue salon ! Lets hear how he does it all and still gives a very loyal clientele the best haircuts in town!
