In 2012, Anthony launched his namesake salon, Anthony Cristiano, in the heart of Chicago. Overlooking the beautiful Chicago River, this 3,400 square-foot salon embodies Anthony Cristiano’s personal philosophy and aesthetic. "I devote much thought to everything I do. I am especially mindful of the client’s needs. This is what inspired me to bring luxury and glamour back to the salon environment while still making it a relaxed and intimate experience. I wanted it to feel as though you were entering my home, and a space where beauty is created.”
The salon’s dedication to delivering an unmatched experience in an exceptional ambiance leaves no detail spared; from the exquisite views of Chicago to the chosen products, every aspect reflects intentional design and curation. “It is incredibly inspiring for me to be in a beautiful environment, so naturally, this extends to my salon. I believe my work is a direct reflection of that beauty and glamour around me.” - Anthony Cristiano
