Hi, I am Frank Barbosa and I have been in the hair industry for 17 years. When I am not in the salon behind the chair, I am busy styling wigs and working on hair behind the scenes on fashion shows, film sets and such. I do attend many trade shows and I am always looking for hair/ Makeup models nationwide.

I am the proud owner of Frank Antonio Hair and Makeup on 22 Bellevue Ave in Newport RI ... the premier salon when it comes to hair and makeup in the Newport area.
I have a full staff behind me so I can serve anyone's styling needs from coloring to hair extensions or any type of makeup application.

.....Frank Barbosa got his start in the hair industry 17 years ago, while working in the trendy neighborhoods of Bucktown and Lincoln Park in Chicago. When he wasn’t at the salon, Frank was busy styling wigs and working on hair behind the scenes at the famed productions of Ragtime, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, The Sound of Music, Mama Mia and The Lion King to name a few.

Frank made a move to the east coast and brought his tress talents to Boston’s Salon Red located on Newbury Street, the city’s trendy locale for shopping, dining and people watching. His next move brought him to Newport, RI, the popular summer haven, where he opened his own salon, Frank Antonio, on Bellevue Avenue, the premiere shopping area. At Frank Antonio, Frank continuously wows fashionistas with his styling techniques, catering to everyone from brides, to party goers, to those visiting on a weekend escape.

In addition to his work at Frank Antonio, for the past ten years, Frank has been busy styling stars on movie sets, prepping their hair for the big screen. He has been the hair department head for recent films such as Bride Wars, Tell-Tale, The Sorcerer’s Apprentice and The Last Harbor, to name a few. He even has a cameo as a stylist to Ann Hathaway in Rachel Getting Married, for which he was the key hair stylist on set, as well as a cameo in Sex and the City 2, for which he was the hair department head and Sarah Jessica Parker’s mane man.

With hair, Frank always loves a challenge and he says it gives him a natural high when he takes on each one. Although Frank has many loves, his true passion is working behind a salon chair. ......
