When Daniel Hernandez began designing his distinctively cut outfits some years ago, he was widely recognized by the Boston fashion community for his talent and sheer exuberance for the art.   Danny began his career in the fashion industry as a hair stylist.  From there he followed his calling to the world of clothing design, creating his first designs on his own and eventually ending up studying in the world’s fashion capital, Paris. 

Before Paris, however Hernandez came up with his own line of shampoos and conditioners and created DH Studios as a vehicle for his growing line of fashion wear and beauty products.  He showed a business sense that few talented designers possessed.  Upon his return from Paris, the budding designer grew weary of working in other’s salons and began searching for a space of his own, all the while continuing work on his clothing line. 

A few months later, with the closing of Sal Sannizzaro Salon, Hernandez premiered DH Studios Hair Salon on ultra-chic Newbury Street.  Business at the salon continues to grow, with raves and word-of-mouth recommendations from longtime clients, and Danny was recently awarded a Vision Award from the Boston Fashion Week organizers. 

Rumor has it that Hernandez will soon be expanding the salon to incorporate retail space where he’ll offer his designs and salon products for sale to the public.  You can see his designs and products on their website www.dhstudios.com or on Bostonfashion.com.
