SaloneThe name may be a mouthful for some…pronounced “Com-pon-EE-ya-DAY-la-BAY-LET-za,” Compagnia della Bellezza translates into “Company of the Beautiful” in Italian. Maria Paonessa
While Maria’s roots are firmly planted in Italy, Compagnia della Bellezza is located in the heart of Old Town neighborhood in a building called Believe It Or Not! All the businesses in the building have been cherry-picked by Maria (she owns the building), and almost all are focused on beauty, from esthetics to electrolysis and nails to facials. There is even a pet boutique – so you and your furry friend can be pampered on the same day. Maria stays current with trends by frequently traveling to Italy to discover and learn new techniques. While there’s a select number of Compagnia della Bellezza salons in the U.S., it is a huge trend in Italy with more than 200 salons. Paolo Bivona
