Hey, I Know These Guys

The AZ Republic ran an article yesterday featuring a father/son duo going to cosmetology school together. It just so happens that they work at the shop where I get my hair done:


We've all heard about the family playing together staying together. But what about the family that works together?

Ask Frank and Michael D'Angelo, a Mesa father and son going to cosmetology school together who, when they graduate, will take up stations in Frank's sister's Gilbert salon.

And, they live together, too.


You can read the whole article if you like, but I just wanted to add a small piece of information. Frank's sister Suzohn is the one that owns the salon in the power center at Guadalupe and Val Vista. She has done our entire family's hair for several years now, so we've gotten to know her a little. She is a generous and compassionate woman and has quietly helped lots of people in different ways, from mentoring young cosmetology students to offering free haircuts to group homes to working with cancer patients and their wigs to help them feel beautiful. She is the type of person that I love to say is representative of Gilbert.

Don't get me wrong; Frank is a great guy and I wish him success in this latest venture. You know how they say "behind every great man is a great woman?" Sometimes the great woman might be your sister.
