Dod says that much of Sullivan's world renown rests on a clearly constructed base of publicity and exposure. Every high-fashion magazine ad, "has Connie Sullivan in it," Dod says. "She's a smart business woman, a crackerjack."
There is, however, some skepticism about Sullivan's talent. Annette from Eleganza says. "I don't really think anyone can predict the future. Hair styles are always changing."
Dod also alludes to the cyclical nature of hair styles. "The same thing is generated over and over again," says Dod hinting that perhaps there is no magic in the forecasting of styles.
But Sullivan's Geneses do more than just hair. They also specialize in general health care. The combination of hair care, manicures, pedicures, acrobic exercise, and dieting suggestions are the trend of the future
Sullivan predicts that her new high-tech salons with soon drive the old barber shop completely out of the hair universe. To prepare for this revolution, the Geneses in Chestnut Hill and Faneuil Hall are designed for men and women of all ages.
Along with her two thriving salons Sullivan is writing a soon-to-be-published book entitled. "The Art of Designing Hair." The book, as the tide suggests, will feature some of Sullivan's creative approaches to hair styling in the post-barber shop age.
