All of these things make The Metroplotiltan Hair Academy of Beauty and Barbering one of the leading educational facilities in the professional hair styling market today andfor over 35 years.

Pivot Point Education stems from the belief that, “It all begins in the Mind. Whether creating hair designs, sculpting, painting or creating a company, nothing happens until someone thinks of it”. (Leo Passage, founder Pivot Point International). His vision for his life’s work—and of the creation of Pivot Point—came when he discovered The Bauhaus, the most celebrated art school of modern times. One of the main objectives of the Bauhaus was to unify art, craft, and technology. There was no teaching of history in the school because everything was supposed to be designed and created according to first principles rather than by following precedent. Its aim, as is ours, was to train craftspeople to elevate their skills to a higher level of artistic creativity. By adapting the Bauhaus philosophy to the craft of cosmetology, Pivot Point Member Schools provide the educational structure to develop true hair designers.

The ITELY Hair Fashion Group, a 100% Italian company that is  led by the Fusaro family, who founded it in 1987, has been producing and distributing products, training and images exclusively for the professional hair styling market for almost 27 years. Founded in 1987 by a group of professionals of the hair-care industry, Itely Hairfashion was born with the intent to present to the professional hair-care market high standard products that were able to combine Italian taste with a definite international vocation. A modern research laboratory that continuously develops not only new products to satisfy the needs of professionals around the world, but also new ideas in hair fashion by utilizing the renowned studios of PerclersParis in Paris France whose job is to decipher today’s trends, to picture the future and to infuse these ideas between creativity and industry.
 
The brand itself identifies the all-Italian origin of the Company as well as the color nuances, always aligned to the latest fashion trends and recalling both the Renaissance Red Florentia nuances and the fragrances of the warm Mediterranean summer.
