If there was ever a time when the world needed brightening up, it's now.
You don't need us to tell you about the challenges of living in the age of covid, and the best way to brighten up is to do so quite literally with Legendary Colorist Thomas Morrissey of the John D'Orazio Salon.  We have been singing his praises for three years straight and the best pick-me-up in color is achieved by booking with bright manager Mary and strolling down Madison Avenue to #872 to see unassuming, modest, uber-talented Thomas.

Thomas innately knows how to make your color pop without shocking.  You will be a positive head-turner when you walk into a room and the exact shade is in accordance with his distinct beauty philosophy of always making you look your natural best.  Pictures don't lie and we don't edit-Thomas Morrissey with a wave of his wand which comes in the form of a paintbrush and bespoke haircolor just for you will indeed shave at least a decade off your look.
From every angle, in every shadow and light your haircolor makes a statement!
Torrentially exciting is a visit to Thomas!
For the uninitiated, your haircolor will never look better.
Thomas Morrissey possesses a keen sense of color nuance yielding thrilling results!
Working on everyone from Jackie Kennedy to Brooke Astor to Marilyn Monroe to the face you see in these pictures, Thomas Morrissey is indeed among the most elite haircolorists in the world and we continue to be honored to work with him at John D'Orazio. 
The enchanted result will leave you looking luminous, refreshed and at your personal best.
A lovely single process was executed to perfection by Thomas Morrissey, and as we have told you all along The John D'Orazio Salon follows all covid protocols and everyone there has been vaccinated.  They were clean and pristine before covid and continue to be so now as Mary Hopkins, manager, is uber-detail-oriented.  We were delighted to meet Andre Miska this visit and he diligently performed a gorgeous blowout to show the fabulous results of Thomas Morrissey's color talent.

Previously on Whom You Know, Thomas Morrissey of John D'Orazio has most recently been featured this past spring:
and he and his team earned a spot in our Best of 2018:
and best of 2019:
Certainly if we did a best of 2020 they would have been in it but due to covid we did not do one last year.
Color by Thomas Morrissey of The John D'Orazio Salon continues to earn our Highest Recommendation.
