Laurentius Parnama-owner of Laurentius Salon, the new, all-white, ultra-modern salon in the Italian Market-has credentials. (He's styled Britney, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Beverly Johnson, to name a few). But he also has method we like: Rather then drastically changing your look, he and his team concentrate on cuts, color and conditioning treatments that enhance your style. The result (delivered in record time - while you sip chardonnay) is an amped-up, still-recognizable, shiny new you.

INSIDER TIP: Try the Balinese Ginger Pedicure (delivered by past Best of Philly winner Robin Campbell), Which uses organic ginger to leave you with the softest skin this side of a baby's bottom.

FRIZZ FREE HAIR

This is the best news for everyone who has always had to struggle with frizz all their life, especially during humid summer days.

Our "Keratin" treatment, also known as the "Brazilian Keratin" treatment, will eliminates up to 70% of your curl and 90% of the frizz. This treatment restores and restructures hair by infusing a special blend of natural, keratin protein deep into the damaged cuticles. Your hair will become more manageable, silkier, straighter and shinier. It will reduce your daily styling time tremendously.

I have had many clients that wouldn’t dare to cut their hair above their shoulders.
Now they can enjoy a fashionable and edgy cut, while being able to manage and style their own hair at home without worrying about the weather outside. Its safe for colored hair, even for platinum blonde.

You will never see your hair color and highlight shine so brilliantly. For more information please call 215-238-0764.

Below are some "Before and After" pictures and testimonials letters from our clients.

Sincerely,

I received the Keratin treatment a week before I left for a 2 week vacation to Egypt. I have naturally wavy dark brown curly hair. I currently an a blond and immediately after getting the treatment i saw an amazing difference in the shine and smoothness of my hair (Especially after all the processing I do to it).
While in Egypt my beloved high wattage hair dryer blew up, leaving me to use he low watt hotel hair dryer. Typically there would be no way I would be able to use these low wattage dryers to straighten my hair, bur since getting the keratin, it only took me 10 minutes to achieve a perfectly silky straight look without the aid of a flat iron or high watt hair dryer. Plus, my hair didn‘t get fizzy in the humidity or while at the beach! It is absolutely amazing. My hair is still just as easy to do even two months after getting the treatment! I style my hair straight or curly in a matter of minutes, dramatically cutting down the time it takes me to get ready in the morning. The keratin treatment is absolutely amazing and I and hooked!

AMAZING!!!! - That is the best way to describe my hair after getting the KERATINE treatment at Laurentius Salon.

My hair has a very course texture and becomes frizzy and out of control during the summer months in the humidity - this has been the "Bain of my existence" for years - I have every  "defrizz" product known to man and even using a flat iron - nothing works!!!

No more - since getting the keratin treatment - my hair is smooth and silky - best of all - no frizz - I do not use any products just simply "blow dry" my hair and it retains the silky, smooth texture.

I highly recommend it! You can have the "Hair of your dreams" - I do!

There are few of the looks I had created on Supermodel Beverly Johnson during the filming of the show. During this taping, I had the pleasure to see the fabulous work of A “Supermodel”. Her creative, professionalism and positive energy is very refreshing and absolutely inspiring to me. Her inner beauty is even stronger than her chameleon beauty. One thing I love the most about this show is that it embraces women’s beauty in many shapes and ages.

Can you believe that spring has already come and gone??

Before we get into the summer season, let’s take a quick minute and catch up with all that has been going on since the holiday season.

Let’s start with our appearance on NBC’s “Digphilly tv”. The show featured our Balinese Ginger Pedicure by our well known nail technician, Robin Campbell. The show has really help introduce Philadelphia to our signature pedicure, and thank you to all the new clients who came to see us. The response was fantastic.

Between busy days at the salon, I had the opportunities to do some editorial works (Philadelphia Style and Salon City Magazines) and some advertising jobs in Philadelphia, New York and Miami. I had the pleasure working with local celebrity Barbara Capozzi, international super model Carmen dell’Orefice (who was recently interviewed by Barbara Walters for 20/20) and Miss Universe 2007/2008 Riyo Mory both for ROLEX, and Lauren Bush for Lily Pulitzer.

During April our entire crew attended the International Beauty Show in New Your City. We all participated in multiple educational sessions and had a chance to seek the latest beauty tools and products. During the show we accidentally found out that our salon is featured in “Salon Trends”, the 2008 Design catalog, and by the way we are the only salon in the US featured in this catalog. Beside this catalog our salon is featured in the April 2008 edition of American Salon Magazine.

Also, we are very grateful for the multiple articles that have been written in the popular online Magazine “DailyCandy.com”.

And last but not least, THANK YOU to all of our clients who have welcomed and support us as we continue to grow in our new home.

Sincerely,

I cant tell you how many times I heard comments about how a certain actress look on the red carpet. Some are great , some are discouraging. This gave me the idea about our advertising campaign for our salon in 2007.

We asked 18 of our clients and friends to participate in this campaign. Our goal was to show case the diversity of individual styles shown by our clientele. In our salon we embrace a strong belief in personal style. Everyones style is different. We don't disregard it, rather we enhance it.

We have CJ who is a Message Therapist, Barbara Capozzi who is a very succesful business woman, and even our publicist Laura. We also have Senator Vince Fumo, our friends Stephane and Jaye, and Tomomi who is an aspiring model, they all were also part of this photoshoot. We hope you enjoy our advertising campaign as much as we ejoyed producing it.

And dont forget...Everyone can be beautiful...just find the right stylist. Our artistic team is ready to help you achieve your style at best.

You can view our advertising and editorial work in the January issue of Philadelphia Magazine.

This is "The Talented Miss Orfeh", Tony Award-nominated for "Best Performance By a Featured Actress in a Musical" for her role as Paulette in Legally Blonde, The Musical.

Makeup artist to the Stars, Isabel Perez and I worked together that day for Orfeh's big night at the 2007 Tony Awards in New York City.

The look was glamorous and sultry.

We both were very excited and honored to work with such an amazing talent.
