Famed Manhattan salon comes to Westchester

[dropcap]W[/dropcap]estchester fans of Nunzio Saviano’s work will no longer have to make the trip to 65th Street in Manhattan for his salon services, as the hair stylist has now opened a salon at the Ritz-Carlton Westchester, accepting clients by appointment only from Tuesday to Saturday.

Though small, the full-service, luxury salon is located on the ninth floor of the White Plains hotel, sharing space with its spa amenities. Patrons can experience Saviano’s signature cuts and hairstyling, which also includes a colorist and services for special events, and manicures and pedicures. The salon exclusively uses Kérastase hair products.

Saviano himself is available there every Tuesday. With more than 20 years in the hairstyling business, he has wanted to open another location for some time now, having opened the Manhattan salon about four years ago. Jean Oh, one of the stylists at the Ritz-Carlton, has been with Saviano since the opening of the first salon.

A Stamford, Connecticut resident, he was looking at space in Greenwich when the Ritz-Carlton Westchester approached him with a salon that fit just right. “I got into hairstyling because of the creativity of it,” Saviano said. “Once I get bored, there’s already something out there; like fashion, hair trends move very quickly.”

Saviano has been called the best by various publications, including Allure and InStyle. He keeps an eye on trends while also paying attention to one’s facial structure, hair type and lifestyle, creating a look that is all your own. He has worked with the likes of actresses Angelica Huston and Brooke Shields, to name a few.

As a special, any Nunzio Saviano Salon appointment can provide patrons the use of some of the Ritz-Carlton amenities, including the hotel pool, for an extra $20, allowing for a day of head-to-toe pampering.

To make your appointment, call 467-5888 or 467-5728. For more information, visit nunziosaviano.com/white-plains.
