Editorial Review

Transforming a vintage basement barbershop into an airy and elegant salon accented in pink, black, silver and crystal, owner Nadia Albano has proved herself a master of the makeover, lovingly undertaking renovations with her husband. Precision color correction, cutting techniques, expert makeup application and styling mean the effervescent Albano is in high demand for weddings, runway shows, red carpet events and as a college program coordinator. Appointments in her studio at the base of a curved marble staircase are a delightful treat, just like the French palmier biscuits accompanying the complimentary espresso. Classes available and gentlemen always welcome.
