NEW ROCHELLE, NY — There may be a few more celebrity sightings in New Rochelle than normal now that the famed Hair House Salon has opened its doors. The good news, for those of us who aren't rich and famous, is that it doesn't take a fat pocketbook (or a giant pair of scissors) to feel like a star at the city's newest business. On Tuesday, New Rochelle's newest hair salon, Hair House, celebrated its grand opening and ribbon-cutting at its new flagship location at 360 Huguenot. The New Rochelle Chamber of Commerce, the City of New Rochelle, New Rochelle Downton BID and RXR were there to join in the celebration. The ribbon-cutting was held in the salon and was followed by an open-air reception on the rooftop of 360 Huguenot.

She's one smart cookie and I'm extremely proud of her." The giant ribbon-cutting scissors look taller in person. (New Rochelle Chamber of Commerce) Hair House, founded by Dana Fiore, is a boutique salon offering haircuts, color, styling, manicures, pedicures and makeup with techniques only found in NYC's most exclusive salons. The new location in New Rochelle will have space for wrap-around services, including massages, facials and skin care treatments. With over 17 years of experience at the renowned Louis Licari salon and 15 years as a personal celebrity hairstylist, Fiore and her team create haircuts and hair colors that are "modern, chic and timeless." Her work has been seen in Vogue, Cosmopolitan, Glamour, Good Housekeeping, Today and America's Next Top Model. "Thanks to the continued support of family, clients and friends, and the tremendously talented staff at Hair House, we were able to create and expand our business in just 5 short years," Fiore said. "We are so excited to be located in downtown New Rochelle at 360 Huguenot and to be a part of the newfound energy and vibrancy of the city. Our team is ready to bring our NYC experience north to Westchester County. I am especially grateful to my husband and daughter for their patience and support as I turned my passion into a business of which I am so unbelievably proud." RXR Realty, the named master developer for downtown New Rochelle, announced in 2021 that Dana Fiore's famed Hair House was planning to move its flagship from its previous location in Pelham Bay in the Bronx. The salon signed a 1,200 square foot, 10-year lease to occupy the ground-floor retail space at 360 Huguenot, a newly built, 28-floor luxury residential and mixed-use retail development, on the site of the former Loew's Theatre.
