Dina DeSandis Cipriano
I am Owner of Fusion as well as a Hair Stylist. I have been in the industry since 1997 but always knew hair was my passion. In my late teens I worked for Sebastian International as an Educator, then was chosen to work for Iso as a Design Team Member. I had the amazing opportunity to train among our Industry’s elite. As much as I loved balancing working in a Salon and traveling, I decided to work exclusively behind the chair. I took a leap of faith and opened Fusion in 2011. I have not only grown as a business, but as a Stylist also. I pride myself in continuing my education and motivation to further benefit my craft. I have attended the Sebastian Academy in Los Angeles, Aquage Academy of Hairdressing in Baltimore, Certified in Babe Hair Extensions & Brazilian Blowout. Hair Cutting and Coloring are my passion. I also do Gel Manicures and have a hidden talent of hand drawing micro pictures and designs on nails. I would love to meet you and get my hands in your hair!

Specializations
I specialize in hair cutting and coloring. I am passionate about the design of cutting and I love determining the shape of a hairstyle and then finishing the look with movement.
Favorite retail product
I love all Aquage products, but my favorite is the Silkening Oil. It speeds up blowdry time, creates a high shine finish and doesn’t leave hair feeling greasy.
