Toni & Guy (stylised as TONI&GUY) is a British international chain of hairdressing salons founded in the UK in 1963 by brothers Toni and Guy Mascolo.[2][3]
History
In 1963, Toni Mascolo and his brother Guy opened their first salon in Clapham, London.[4]
In 1985, the company opened its first salon outside Europe, in Dallas, Texas. It also launched the TIGI product line.[5] In 1990, the Toni & Guy Hairdressing Academy was opened.[5]
In 2009, the TIGI product line was acquired by Unilever for £296 million.[6]
