There are hairdressers, and then there is Benni Tognini; the man who has inspired an entire generation of stylists, and the original power house behind the TOGNINIS brand. Considered the father of avant garde hairdressing, Benni is an enigma in the world of high fashion hairdressing, shying away from the bright lights of celebrity and stardom that have taken him all over the world. With a string of international accolades, including World Master of the Craft, you are more likely to find Benni training and inspiring the next generation of stylists coming through than schmoozing it up at the latest nightclub opening. His dynamic mind and uncompromising commitment to technical excellence and innovation has put Benni at the top of his game. He is one of only eight members worldwide forming the prestigious Global Artistic Team for Matrix. An artisan and an educator, Benni is a man driven by a passion to succeed in an industry that embodies his very essence.
