salon TONIC welcomes Oribe

Aug 24 | by SharonNo Comments »

Salon Tonic is honored to be hosting a demonstration by the one and only Oribe. We’re so excited we can hardly sleep! It’s like Christmas Eve or The night before a new Coen Brothers movie premiere. Only better! We love Oribe and are anxiously awaiting his arrival to our humble little hair salon. By the time he’s done with his demonstrations our noggins will be full of brand new hairy ideas. He’s got duffel bags full of hair pieces that he’s going to turn into art on live models. A blonde, a brunette and a redhead will be transformed into living art.  Read what others are saying.

Elan Sassoon

Jul 23 | by SharonNo Comments »


When I was a young girl, the thought of being part of the world that Vidal Sassoon created seemed magical.  The man himself was, to me, an untouchable icon.  Immortal.  Larger than life.  So… you can imagine my shock and awe when last week his son, Elan Sassoon walked in the front door of salon Tonic.  Wow. He was gracious, humble, and genuinely  interested in knowing about the culture I created.  As we sat on the lobby sofa, I couldn’t help but feel as though I was looking into the face of his father.  Can you see the resemblance in the photos?   Sometimes life can hand you gifts when you least expect it.  Meeting Elan Sassoon was magical.
