How we got our start: Founder Maria Gallo saw an opportunity that would introduce hair foil to salons across Canada. Partnering with her husband, Frank, the pair ventured out to salons in their home province of Ontario, Canada, knocking on doors, educating hairstylists on the future of hair color. Riddled by challenges and turned away repeatedly by salon owners, the duo looked to distribution, and thus, Framar was born. Maria became an over the phone sales specialist, working with a network that introduced Framar to hairstylist across the entire country, all without ever physically meeting any of her customers - many of whom are still a strong part of Framar, some 35 years later. What makes our products unique: Once upon a time, hair coloring accessories were nothing more than a footnote in the professional beauty industry. Something everyone needed, but no one obsessed over – until Framar moved onto the block. Framar products are manufactured to a superior standard, and designed to honor the spirit of the hairstylist and inspire the creativity that embodies their craft. Why we love what we do? To the uninitiated, it might not seem like bold colors and trendy designs matter all that much when it comes to creating professional hair tools and accessories, but it’s woven into our DNA. The community of hairstylists we engage with on a daily basis provide us with the inspiration to keep innovating, and the enthusiasm they share for what we create gives us the fuel to keep us motivated. When it’s your calling to turn ordinary tools into something that can make someone else smile, it’s easy to love what you do. Frank & Maria in their salon in 1978. Meet Maria: She embodies the soul of Framar, and still provides the strong foundation for the company today. For the first 20 years, she was a one-woman show, running everything from production and sales, to packing each order by hand. Some 35 years after taking a leap of faith and creating this company, Maria is still at the helm today, serving as company President and remaining intricately involved in all things Framar. Maria created Framar out of the back of her husband Frank’s salon in 1986, becoming the first in Canada to create foil made specifically for hair stylists. With every #framar post we see, our Framar family grows. Together, we are creating this amazing global network of people who love hair just as much as we do, supporting each other through innovation, creativity and community. Our team is passionate about pushing the boundaries of the industry to create hair tools, reinvented. Framar is family owned with Maria's sons working in the office everyday!
