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

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!

Rockin’ Redhead
Posted by Anthony Leonard Salon | Filed under Events, Hair Products, Media, Music, Products, Services
Traveling to different cities each week and rocking out onstage almost nightly has the potential to wreak havoc on the hair, but singer, guitarist and music royalty Patti Scialfa (wife of Bruce Springsteen) keeps her locks looking healthy and vibrant with a little help from Oribe Hair Care.
“Patti uses Shampoo and Conditioner for Beautiful Color exclusively to keep her hair color in top form while she’s on tour with Bruce,” says her colorist, Anthony Palermo, who enhances the musician’s naturally red hair with copper and strawberry tones to make it pop onstage. “Every few visits, we add some highlights around her face to give what she calls ‘a more rock ‘n roll look.’” Palermo, color director and co-owner of Anthony Leonard Salon in Manhattan, uses a secret formula of Wella Color Charm shades to create Scialfa’s desired red color, which is bright yet natural-looking. “Bruce loves the way her hair looks while she’s performing,” Palermo says.
And what about the always well-groomed Springsteen, who famously (and hilariously) covered Willow Smith’s “Whip My Hair” with Jimmy Fallon back in 2010? According to Palermo, he’s using Signature Shampoo and Conditioner to keep his own mane in check.
