Gennaro Dell'Aquila

OWNER & ART DIRECTOR

Award-winning hairstylist Gennaro Dell’Aquila began his distinctive journey in Napoli, Italy at the young age of 16. After refining his skills at a premier hair academy in the fashion capital Milan, he made a significant impact in London, primarily in the high-end salon settings of Chelsea and South Kensington. At these luxury salons, Gennaro served a distinguished clientele including members of the royal family, A-list celebrities, and high-profile individuals. However, his passion for hair health led him to pioneer a line of 100% natural, plant-based hair care products, ensuring a perfect balance of luxury and comprehensive hair health. Gennaro debuted his innovative vision with his own salon in Wimbledon in 2015, followed by successful establishments in Notting Hill, Chelsea, South Kensington, and Sardinia’s idyllic Costa Smeralda. Expansion plans are underway with exciting new locations across Europe and the Middle East.

SENIOR STYLIST

I've had a love affair with hair ever since I was a young boy growing up in Sicily. The art of styling, the way a cut can completely transform someone's look and bring out their best features, always fascinated me. I started my career in the industry more than 9 years ago and quickly found a passion for making my clients look and feel their best. My journey in hair has taken me from my hometown in Sicily to the bustling streets of London, where I joined the talented team at GA in 2017. Every day, I bring my wealth of experience and my unique perspective to my clients. I understand that every head of hair is different and every client has their own needs and wants. That's why I always take the time to get to know my clients, to understand their hair type and their lifestyle, and to make sure that the look I create for them is tailored specifically to them. I'm particularly skilled in creating looks that are both stylish and practical, so that my clients can easily recreate their look at home.
