Team
As Salon Mario Russo's Wedding Coordinator, I bring a blend of passion and expertise to each couple's special day. With seven years at Boston's premier salon, my dedication to the art of hairstyling and the joy of weddings allows me to create unforgettable experiences. Let's make your day as beautiful as your love story.
As a bridal specialist at Salon Mario Russo for 27 years, I’ve dedicated myself to creating exquisite wedding and special occasion hairstyles. My work was recognized with the Best of Boston award for bridal hair in 2008. I am deeply passionate about helping my clients look and feel beautiful on their most memorable days, always bringing a serene and positive aura to every occasion.
With an unwavering passion for enhancing the beauty and confidence of my clients, I specialize in cuts, styling, and updos for both women and men. My work has graced the pages of Harper’s Bazaar, Elle, Allure, The Boston Globe, and Boston Magazine. In a groundbreaking moment, I made history as the first Albanian designer to participate in Boston Fashion Week in October 2021.
I look forward to continuing to ensure my clients look and feel their absolute best, especially on their special day!
My journey as a Stylist/Colorist at Salon Mario Russo began 21 years ago, including 2 years as Mario’s assistant. My extensive training at Blaine, Vidal Sassoon in Santa Monica, Bumble & Bumble, Oribe, Great Lengths, and Wella hair shows in Barcelona has earned me Best of Boston awards for Best Blowdry in 2007 and Best Extensions in 2019.
I’ve had the honor of working with public figures like Nancy Pelosi, Caroline Kennedy, Tonya Mezrich, Aerosmith, Linda Henry, the Red Sox wives, and multiple charity events.
Specializing in bridal styling, updos, extensions, and special occasion hair, I find inspiration from the finger waves and pin curls of the 1920s to the big hair of the 60s and 70s. Gaudi’s architectural style, with its unstructured, round, wavy volumes, mirrors my aesthetic. I love hair that moves like an ocean – millions of strands flowing together.
Hair should match the client’s personality and lifestyle, but I like to push boundaries. When clients think outside the box as I do, the results are always fantastic!
