atamian hair, an international luxury hair care collection

Armen Atamian

Armen Atamian, C.E.O and Founder of the ATAMIAN Hair collection and Salon Fusion owner in

Northville, Michigan. Born in Kuwait, lived and survived through the

Gulf War with his family. His experience taught him a lot about

survival and overcoming adversity.

“Without fully understanding business at seven-year old, I made my first

business transaction and that’s when I felt the best sense of personal

gratification. That drive inside grew stronger and stronger through time, even

after I moved to over 10-countries. I knew I was destined to become an

entrepreneur, and business turned into an outlet for me, I felt an inner sense of

peace with everything I experienced in the past,” Armen Atamian, C.E.O and

Founder of ATAMIAN Hair and Owner of Salon Fusion

Atamian’s childhood shaped who he is today, from his first sale at

seven-years old to setting-up shop inside his uncle’s garage in Cyprus. He laughed, “I was thriving

inside my uncle’s garage selling treats just like the shops that surrounded my uncle’s home.

However, due to numerous complaints, I had to pack it up.” He took that as a learning experience

and as a challenge to overcome. Atamian shared, “I learned more about business in that short

experience; such as, opening and closing business, building relationships and observing behavior.

The short-term experience taught me to pursue business, no matter if the door is closed.”

After a few years passed, Atamian and his family arrived into Detroit, Michigan where he attended

Wayne State University and graduated with a degree in Finance. His overall experience was very

positive but Atamian yearned to open shop in the hair industry. This worked perfectly because his

sister Anita Atamian studied cosmetology, and perfected her craft working and training around the

world with TONI & GUY as her mentor.

Together the siblings agreed that opening a salon fit their talents, skills and fulfilled their inner

passion: Anita Atamian’s artistry for hair, beauty and make-up and Armen Atamian’s drive for

entrepreneurship and growth.

In 2012, the siblings turned their passion and dreams into a reality. They found the location, located

in Northville, Michigan and purchased an existing salon. However, it wasn’t up-to-par, so they

made their first investment to renovate it. Anita and Armen Atamian agreed on the design to make

it into an oasis like ambiance.

After Atamian successfully built Salon Fusion’s clientele through the word-of-mouth, the rate of the

salons’ first-year grew 40%. “I felt comfortable to explore my next business venture, take a risk and

explore other options. So I devoted time to create a hair care collection. I recall sleepless nights of

staying-up till the salon opened; studying and researching the existing market of hair care,” Atamian

explained. Everything came together after many months, simultaneously Atamian began the design

and process to develop his hair care collection.

Almost two-years later, the final product was ready to launch. It met Atamian’s standard after many

tests. “My idea was simple, create a hair care collection that exceeded the existing market: from the

design, scent and ingredients for results after the first use,” Atamian explained. Today the

ATAMIAN Hair collection is perfectly packaged with a perfume scent while it restores, nourishes

and repairs hair.

“My dreams and goals are to never stop, regardless of the circumstance, I will prevail to build an empire. The

past has taught me to stay humble as I continue to grow, and be appreciative of what I have in-front of me. This

journey has just started and I am excited to share it with my supporters as well as learn from others along the

way,” Armen Atamian, C.E.O and Founder of ATAMIAN Hair

ATAMIAN Hair is made in Miami and distributed globally to Europe, the Middle East and the

United States. Due to the testimonials, positive feedback and demand. Atamian expressed, “Three

more additional products will be added to the collection in 2016.”

Anita Atamian

Anita Atamian, an International Stylist, with close to 20 years of experience. She is internationally

educated, recognized and trained by celebrity stylists.

“As a child, I was always drawn to artistry and passionate about helping

others, when I discovered a career path that allowed for both artistry and

helping others, it made sense to pursue hair, makeup and beauty.”

At an early stage of her career, she started as an assistant, then

worked as a hair stylist in a local salon to master her craft. It

didn’t take long before she learned the nuances of hair styling until

she was able to work behind the chair on her own. She said, “I

was always eager to learn and grow, when the opportunity to

travel the world and learn the art of hair, makeup and beauty from a world renowned hair stylist, I

didn’t hesitate for one moment. So I took it, and traveled the world to learn from the celebrity stylist

Toni and Guy.”

“My work with Toni and Guy was an amazing, humbling and significant experience to understand the art of

hair, makeup and beauty; there is no end to how much an artist can learn. As I traveled the world to London,

Dubai, Rome, Cyprus, Kuwait and Bahrain there were always new obstacles to overcome, I always embraced

the challenges. The experience with Toni and Guy challenged me both personally and professionally to always

achieve the best work in hair, makeup and beauty with all my clients.” –Anita Atamian, International

Stylist and Owner of Salon Fusion

Anita Atamian is no stranger to salon industry. From her work internationally to local Michigan

salons, she has always desired to work and own her own salon. “I had a vision of how I thought a

salon should operate, provide both professional and top-notch services, but offer a calming ambiance

and atmosphere. A place ultimately designed for clients to relax and be pampered,” said Anita

Atamian.

In July of 2013, her dream became a reality when she founded Salon Fusion, located on Beck Road

and Six Mile Road in Northville, Michigan. Salon Fusion was quickly remodeled to reflect Anita

Atamian’s vision combined with her brother, Armen Atamian’s business acumen. The two together

were vested in the overall success of the salon and has grown consistently since it opened its doors.

Salon Fusion is notable through word-of-mouth and personal recommendations of her work to

speak for itself.

Approaching Salon Fusion’s third anniversary in July 2015, the brother and sister duo are the

masterminds behind both the success of Salon Fusion and their latest addition of an innovative hair

care collection, called: ATAMIAN Hair. Anita and her brother chose this name as a significant

representation to honor their parents.

“My parents have worked so hard throughout their lives, to support myself and my three brothers, in doing so

this is the best way I know how to say “Thank You.” They were instrumental for me to achieve and realize my

dreams, turning a dream into a reality.” -Anita Atamian, International Stylist and Owner of Salon

Fusion

The consensus among stylists and clients agree, “it is amazing to watch Anita Atamian work,” “She

is so efficient and achieves amazing results,” and “I have never seen a stylist work so quickly, while

transforming hair into a beautiful art piece.”

Today, Anita and Armen Atamian have plans to create many additions to the ATAMIAN hair

collection, which is produced in Miami, and distributed in Europe, the Middle East and the United

States.

“My hard-work, struggles, dreams and passion for the artistry of hair, makeup and beauty has

become a reality, and I am so humbled to have the support of my family and friends by my side

while I continue to work behind the chair at Salon Fusion,” said Anita Atamian. With her at the

helm, Salon Fusion and now ATAMIAN Hair will flourish for many more years to come to the

community of Northville, Michigan and surrounding areas.

Salon Fusion of Northville debuts

When Armen Atamian was young, he and his family, including sister

Anita, moved around from the native home in Kuwait because of the

fallout of The Gulf War. He estimated that they lived in nearly 10

countries in five to six years before moving to the United States in 1996.

Today Armen and Anita are true American success stories as owners of

Salon Fusion in Northville, a salon that opened in 2012 and has

experienced an average of 40 to 50 percent growth each year. The

Atamians took an existing salon and changed the brand, the level and

quality of services and now have launched their own brand of hair care

products.

“Our biggest marketing effort honestly has been word-of-mouth,” said

Atamian. “Once we get customers into the salon they come back and are willing to refer to their

friends and family members.”

Salon Fusion offers a full range of services, including hair

extensions and spray tanning. Armen handles the business side,

and has always wanted to focus the business on providing the

highest quality and most natural products. Anita has nearly 20

years of experience as an international hair stylist.

While the salon has been successful, Armen is particularly excited

about the release of his collection of hair care products. The

Atamian Hair Collection was first released this May and is

something that Armen has worked on for nearly a year and a half.

The line carries three categories of products: shampoo, conditioner and restoration oil. Armen said

that every product is individually formulated to nourish, restore, repair and rebuild hair to its

healthy state of luster and shine.

It is not possible to patent the mixture of products through the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office,

but the name “Atamian Hair Collection” along with its logo is patent pending, Armen said.

The four primary ingredients that are part of the products include Argan Seeds, Almond Oil, Biotin

Oil and Grapefruit Extract. It is all-natural— with no parabens, sulfate or phosphorous— highlighting

Armen’s goal of emphasizing the importance of all-natural products. The Atamian Hair collection is

also unique in that it is made with a perfume scent.

“We didn’t want to just carry an existing product that we didn’t feel would be the highest quality for

our clients,” Armen said. “We began carrying Moroccan Oil as a great product that sells itself. But

soon after I realized I wanted to create our own product line. The formulation took awhile, including

the packaging, logo, color and more but I wanted something perfect because my name was on it.”

The goal for Armen is to continue to add additional products as part of his collection each year to

focus on hair spray, volumizing and more. For now the collection of products is being sold at the

Northville salon, which employs five stylists and is open five days a week, including Tuesdays

through Fridays until 7 p.m.

“We have a number of working mothers as clients as we wanted to keep the salon open long enough

so they can come back in after work and not feel too rushed,” Armen said. “But what we have also

learned about the Northville and Novi communities is that our customers are very health conscious

so that just makes our (message of all natural products) stronger.”
