About Lisa Amato Hair in Pittsburgh

Hey, it’s Lisa!

I feel so lucky to be in this amazing industry. Everyday I get the opportunity to be creative and express my artistic side. For me, it’s all about making friends and getting inspired!

I specialize in lived-in hair color, dimensional, grey blending, and expensive looking Brunettes & Blondes. I am certified in various types of hair extensions including K-tips, Tape-ins and Beaded Weft Extensions. I custom blend to match your own hair perfectly.

Let me tell you a little bit about my journey. I am from Pennsylvania and grew up outside of the Pittsburgh area. For the first 15+ years, I worked all around the Pittsburgh area. Early in my career, I was lucky enough to be part of the Redken team and was a platform artist. I attended most of my training in New York City at the L’Oréal academy. I was a L’Oréal Professional Artist in 2021. I have also done freelance work for tv and editorial.

I moved to Colorado in 2009 and I loved it! I spent the first 10 years working in beautiful Boulder, CO and the next 5 years in Denver, CO. I joined Trademarc Salon in Denver in 2020 and I still go back to see clients a few times a year.

I recently decided to follow my heart and came full circle back to Pittsburgh. This past year, I have been trying to navigate and find my new salon home. I am thrilled to have recently joined Tonic Salons. I will be working at all 3 locations: Wexford, Aspinwall, & Downtown Pittsburgh.

When I am not behind the chair, you can find me at the park or on my yoga mat. I am a coffee junkie and foodie. I love plants, art, creative writing, traveling, and live music. I am cat mom of Luna and Thomas, who were both rescues.

Please come see me at any location! I would love to have you as a guest in my chair! xoxo
