A Phyton at Franck Provost

After four years in Manila, Franck Provost just opened another branch on Madrigal Avenue, Alabang last January 29, 2002. This newest addition to the French salon's long list of full-service outlets has the feel of a luxury car showroom: high ceiling, glass walls, steel white beams, and lots of generous space. Black chairs and tables, mirrored booths, and a row of sinks provide accents to an already minimalist and industrial feel.

One of the salon's master cutters is Dante Lozano, 41, who goes by the name of Phyton. With 16 years of experience as a hair stylist, and training in places like Pivot Point in Hong Kong, Blue and Co. School of Hairdressing, and Vidal Sassoon, Phyton has become one of Manila's top hair stylists.
