Our Story
Deanna Molinaro and Danette Hastings are cousins. Deanna worked as a nail artist for Tigeress Salon in Arvada for over 25 years. Danette was a school teacher for 26 years in Fort Collins Colorado.
In 2014 Tigeress Salon was closing, this became a call for action, as 80% of the staff had no where to go and wanted to stay together as they had for over 25 years.
So Deanna and Danette decided to take the plunge and open D’Amici Salon (D is for Deanna and Danette and Amici is friends in Italian).
They brought the staff to the new location in Westminster, Colorado. The faithful clientele had been with the staff for most of those years and came with them to the new location. We treat all of our clients as family.
You will witness the friendly atmostphere, the caring and supportive environment and the skill levels that come with working together for over 35 years.
Our Team
Some of the artists at D’Amici Salon have known each other and worked together for over 30 years. The clients they have acquired over the years are some of the same clients that have been with them since the beginning. Quality and experience are the two main qualities that are driving D’Amici Salon to become one the finest quality full service salons in the Westminster area. For those of you who came to our other salons, welcome to the salon that brought many of us back together to create a unique, friendly and sophisticated atmosphere. To our new customers, come in and Enjoy the D’Amici experience!
