A BIG congratulations to Philip Pelusi Artistic Elite Designer Danette on her 35 Year Anniversary at Philip Pelusi The Salon Collective!

Although she was shared her incredible talent working at many Philip Pelusi locations over the years, she has been and is currently serving Guests with excellence at Siena for many years.

Thank you Lisa K for sending in this amazing photo of Danette and for sharing this exciting news! Congratulations Danette and thank you for all you do!

And for fun a throwback back from the Philip Pelusi Masters photoshoot circa 2019….

All of team Squirrel Hill was on deck, plus Philip himself, to celebrate super talents Anthony and Leonor!  Both celebrating their long successful careers at Philip Pelusi!

Anthony is retiring after an amazing career at Philip Pelusi, including roles as Salon Manager and Elite Designer.  Having been with the company for decades, Anthony created a legacy of beautiful hair and happy Guests!  We wish him all the best.

Leonor, another incredibly gifted and successful Designer, is celebrating her 56^th Anniversary with Philip Pelusi!  And she still is working part time at Philip Pelusi as well!  Congrats Leonor!

Also joining the party was one of Philip’s first original Guests, Mindy F., from when he opened the Squirrel Hill Salon in 1965.  Philip actually started doing her hair when she was still in high school! 

Thank you to both of these amazing talents!!  Check out the celebration!!
