A second generation and passionate hairstylist, Cristiano De Francesco, was born in Milan, Italy.  The spark in him happened there where he watched his father own and operate three thriving salons in Milan. At nine years old Cristiano began honing his skills on his friends and family. In 2002, after many years of practice and motivation, he started his successful career at Orea Malia, in Milan Italy. Shortly after, in 2005, he moved on to work for A. Bottino in Palma de Mallorca, Spain before moving to Ibiza, Spain to work for Antonio B. It doesn’t end there. In 2014 Cristiano finally opened his own salon in his hometown, as well as Aldo Coppola,  Milan Italy and Moscow, Russia, and then in Sydney, Australia. Embracing his talent in many beautiful places!

 

Cristiano brings out his philosophy of natural effects and healthy hair to every person he meets. Today you’ll find him in La Jolla, California continuing the tradition his father started in Taormina, Sicily in 1957.
