Which room did the salon first start from?

The word salon originated from Italian "Salotto", which is a transliteration of the French word salon. It originally referred to the luxurious living room in the residence of the French elite. Since17th century, many celebrities in Paris have often turned the living room into a social place for parties. The extended meaning of salon is "gathering", which has gradually evolved into a social form. Nowadays, the salon has developed into a hairdressing salon and a salon activity, but no matter how the form changes, the core meaning of the salon still represents communication and sharing.

Although salons and parties are social activities, their purposes and participation groups are different. Salons are usually for learning and communication. Each issue has two different themes. Although participants don't have to prepare carefully, they still come to study, not to be poor and happy. The party pays more attention to entertainment and relaxation, which is a transliteration of English party, translated into party, usually in a relaxed and happy atmosphere.
