Early Years
Anthony Mascolo was born in London in 1959, the son of Italian immigrants, Francesco and Maria Mascolo. The youngest of five brothers, four of which were to become hairdressers, Anthony cannot remember ever thinking of doing anything else except joining the family hairdressing business. By the time he left school he was a competent and fully qualified hairdresser. His first job was in the family’s Toni&Guy salon in South London, where his father and brother Bruno, also worked. By the time the Mascolo brothers opened their first central London salon in 1974, Anthony was already a highly creative hairdresser working on photographic shoots with top photographers.

Famous quotes containing the words early years, early and/or years:
“Even today . . . experts, usually male, tell women how to be mothers and warn them that they should not have children if they have any intention of leaving their side in their early years. . . . Children don’t need parents’ full-time attendance or attention at any stage of their development. Many people will help take care of their needs, depending on who their parents are and how they chose to fulfill their roles.”
—Stella Chess (20th century)
“With boys you always know where you stand. Right in the path of a hurricane. It’s all there. The fruit flies hovering over their waste can, the hamster trying to escape to cleaner air, the bedrooms decorated in Early Bus Station Restroom.”
—Erma Bombeck (20th century)
“Adolescents are travelers, far from home with no native land, neither children nor adults. They are jet-setters who fly from one country to another with amazing speed. Sometimes they are four years old, an hour later they are twenty-five. They don’t really fit anywhere. There’s a yearning for place, a search for solid ground.”
—Mary Pipher (20th century)
