In October 2009 I had dinner with John Santilly, my first teacher and mentor at the Vidal Sassoon Academy, London who I hadn't seen in about 30 years! We had a wonderful dinner, reminisced about all the people we knew and what they are doing now. After dinner we walked and he showed me his favorite streets and architecture in his home town of Rome, Italy, this door-knocker is on the front door of one of the oldest houses in Rome. I see a few up styling ideas in the tails of the mermaids… watch out for them in future releases of our up styling videos.
