Ivana Di Piero was born in the small town of Rovella in the region of Calabria, Italy. Her family moved to America when she was a small child to pursue their “American dream” making Norridge, Illinois their new home. At the age of 22 her dream became reality opening a small salon and Ivana Di Piero Hair Studio was born. Her passion initiated at the age of 16 from a vocational program offered through Ridgewood High School in affiliation with Ippolito School of Cosmetology. Receiving a cosmetology license along with a a high school diploma Ivana began her career as a cosmetologist. She worked her way through college. Graduating from Dominican University with a Bachelor of Art degree in fashion merchandising she realized that her love was in the beauty industry. Ivana married Frank Di Piero in 1991 and upon returning from their honeymoon Frank brought home a lease for a salon space.
