(Photo:black formal dresses)Internationally known celebrity hairdresser Rossano Ferretti is famous for creating a signature styling technique called The Method. His innovative ‘Method’, which considers the natural fall of the hair, was created by him along with his sister Lorenza Ferretti.
The hairstylist who has shaped the tresses of Hollywood celebrities like Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Lawrence and Salma Hayek recently opened his hair spa in Dubai in Jumeirah. He also has plans to start a new branch in Abu Dhabi this year.
If you ever go to Rossano’s, expect a lot more than just a cut! Be prepared for a customized cut that takes into account your hair, your face type and your characteristics.
City Times had a chat with Rossano to decode his secret ‘Method’ treatment. Here’s what he told us:
Why did you decide to open a salon in Dubai?
We had been asked to open a salon in Dubai over 8 years ago and then again two years later, but I was focusing on launching my international network first. I opened salons in Paris, New York, LA and Miami in order to build the brand worldwide. Now, I think it’s the perfect time for us to launch in the UAE. It coincides with the launch of the Rossano Ferretti product line, which is a perfect fit for the local needs of the market here.
Can you tell us about your famous The Method?
The Method is an alternative to the more traditional and geometrical cut, which does not always work on every type of haircut or style. The Method is also known as The Invisible Cut and offers a more natural type of cut and beauty and really works to accentuate the person’s natural beauty.
Keeping commerce and business in mind, do you think Dubai is a hotspot for the beauty industry?
Dubai is definitely the epitome of an international lifestyle, and I feel like our new salon in town can definitely help to improve the beauty industry in the UAE.
Are celebrities fussy about their hair or do they have complete faith in you when you cut their hair?
To me, all of my clients are celebrities, as celebrities are exactly the same as every other client. At the end of the day, you need to understand the client, their hair, their needs and why they are getting a haircut. Is it to suit their lifestyle, or for a special event or a photoshoot? I have become famous because of my technique, but regardless of the brief, I always deliver what they want.
Which celebrity was more open to your out-of-the-box hairstyle?
Every client or celebrity that I have dealt with is open to channelling a new hairstyle. Whether it’s to suit their lifestyle, to fit in with a part for their next movie or for an event, there is always a different brief.
When working with celebrities for a movie or a fashion shoot, who decides on the hairstyling?
If I’m working with a celebrity for a movie role or a model for a fashion photo shoot, it is the producer or designer that chooses the hairstyle. It’s always teamwork in the creative industry, and the role is decided together with the producer before the start of filming if any changes are needed.
Keeping summer in mind, how can those who live in Dubai take special care of their hair?
There are a few products including Brillante Protective and Shining Oil which has UVA filters and gives softness and shine to hair whilst protecting your hair from the heat. The Velluto serum is an anti frizz, antistatic serum with additional UVA filters and is a must for everytime you want to blow dry or heat style your hair. The Splendido and Intenso shampoos should be used every time you wash your hair and of course, you should always drink a lot of water!
What’s the hairstyle trend these days? Long or short? Curly or straight?
I would never say a certain type of hairstyle is fashionable or trendy. My philosophy with hair is that each woman is completely unique, and their hair cut should be personalised to them – their style, the way they look, their lifestyle and where they live.Read more at:pink formal dresses
