The history

The Marc Antoni philosophy is to give its clients value for money together with the best available technical expertise.

The award winning Marc Antoni salons are the South of Englands premier hairdressing group. Throughout their hairdressing career, the Giamattei brothers Bruno, Marcus, Simon and Aaron have constantly pushed themselves to achieve new heights and as a result are now being recognised for their dedication, passion and creative work in both hairdressing and the business of hair.

Having opened their first salon some 44 years ago - Marc Antoni is no stranger to the hairdressing industry. Making their debut in Reading, they built strong foundations, enough to open a further seven salons in the surrounding area, with an eighth planned for 2012 in neighbouring county, Hampshire.

Marc Antoni’s combination of creative hair and sound business practice has meant that the company has thrived as never before. Based on this success, the four brothers plan to expand the group to a 12 salon strong chain throughout the South of England.

In 2007 eldest brother, Bruno Marc took Marc Antoni to new heights by winning British Hairdressing Awards Southern Hairdresser of the Year.

Youngest brother Marcus prefers to spend his time out of the limelight in his role of educator for the salon group. Having created the Marc Antoni M.A.'s - exacting standards that ensure that every stylist’s skills are honed to perfection. Marcus comments:

"Our success is directly due to the commitment to investing in the skills of all our people. From the youngest apprentice upwards, we ensure that everyone understands the business side of the salons, so they know what they can contribute to, both the success of the business and to their own career."

Brother Aaron shines as a hairdresser and enjoys his role in management of the Bracknell salon. Simon however is the brother who spends the majority of his time working behind-the-scenes, both investing time in expanding the business and a penchant for salon design and shopfitting culminating in the branding of the Marc Antoni group of salons - the results of which are salons that don’t make an architectural statement but blend together to give a beautiful, classic environments.
