Diego D'Ambrosiano : ウィキペディア英語版 | Diego's Hair Salon
Diego's Hair Salon is a hairdressing shop located in the Dupont Circle neighborhood of Washington, D.C., USA. Founded in the 1960s by Italian American Diego D'Ambrosio, the salon has become a neighborhood institution frequented by politicians, religious leaders, diplomats, and Supreme Court Justices. In recognition of D'Ambrosio's contribution to the local business community, a neighborhood street was renamed in his honor. D'Ambrosio has received the Order of the Star of Italian Solidarity. ==History==
Two years after D'Ambrosio emigrated from Italy to the United States in 1961, he began working in his first hair salon. D'Ambrosio opened his own shop in 1965. Around 1980, he moved his business to its current location, The Moorings, a nautical-themed, former apartment building at 1901 Q Street, N.W., in Dupont Circle.〔 The Moorings is an Art Deco-style building designed by architect Horace W. Peaslee in 1927 and is designated as a contributing property to the Dupont Circle Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. When he moved to The Moorings, D'Ambrosio raised the price of men's haircuts to $20, the same rate he charges today.〔 Rupert Cornwell of ''The Independent'' described Diego's as a "modest and friendly establishment and the photos on its walls capture Washington: unglamorous but beautiful, exuding power yet oddly homey, with history around every corner and great men's shadows on every wall."
