Dino Tolentino
Master Colourist
One of the guiding lights in the world of colour design, and for more than two decades, Dino has been colouring the world beautiful. Renowned for his sensitivity to depth, texture and natural shine, his name is synonymous with beautiful colour and well-conditioned hair. He has won a number of awards in recognition of his work, and his colour collections are seen regularly on television and in the fashion/beauty press.
After study as a Colour Technician, Dino made his mark in colour correction and colour makeovers. Over the years his specialties have evolved to include dimensional colouring, blondes, ombre and balayage – among others. Dino’s vast range and professionalism has allowed for him to work with and to influence some of Canada’s top Actors as well as Top Modeling Agencies (including Elmer Olsen).
With his unprecedented knowledge and understanding of hair colour and its structure, Dino expertly addresses the needs and demands required to achieve beautifully coloured hair with superb condition, and unparalleled colour magic.
His drive and creativity were always embedded in his work, and at an early stage Dino knew he wanted to be in control of his own creative direction. Dino co-founded Salon Solis in 1999 to share his own unique style with thousands of dedicated clients, including top models who regularly turn to Solis when they have to flaunt multi-coloured tresses for magazines and photo shoots.
