ALL THAT ZAZZ By Mary N. DiZazzo |

JOHN DELLARIA... a Master ... a Legend Ciao bella, In 1960, John started his first salon in Boston. His unwavering talent and determination led to an explosion of 20 salons throughout Boston. His first New York location opened in 1980, in a dilapidated part of the city called Soho. With a positive trend for the future, the salon became iconic and the legend was born. My recollections of John Dellaria included fabulous and trendsetting Couture Fashion Shows held in Boston’s top nightclubs and restaurants. This was in the ’80s and ’90s and hair was big! The clothes and makeup were outstanding, and beyond their time. A fabulous party was had by all. These tremendous shows were legendary, and have yet to be seen again in Boston! A pioneer of many talents, he served as The President of Intercoiffure magazine and Fashion Director for six years. Throughout his career, he was recognized for his expertise, commitment, and notable locations, with 55 awards and honors. Our industry is saddened by the loss of such an iconic figure. A man who transformed the modern era of hairdressing for what it is today. His technique and memory live on through the many stylists who practice Pyrametrics today! I am proud to have worked in Andover’s Dellaria Spa as a Nail Technician for the better part of my career. A salute to my comrades and clients. Stay beautiful! Buona giornata and God bless the United States of America! Mary N. DiZazzo-Trumbull
