Why WIP-Hairport?
After a long professional career in Spain, time and destiny brought me to Lisbon, and luck to this oasis of creativity called Wip-Hairport. Fifteen years later, here I am with the same commitment, professionalism and passion.
What you like most in your profession?
Every day is different, because each client is unique and always a new challenge. In Wip-Hairport in particular, to print irreverence on my work is a privilege. In fact, one of our mottos is “independent haircuts for real people.” Why real people? Because it’s the style that makes fashion, not the opposite. And WIP demands the style of each client, which is unique. Then there’s also the interaction with the team: it is very exciting and rewarding to work with people so inspired and passionate.
What is your contribution to the team?
Right now I’m the one who brings more experience and professional maturity to the salon. And after almost 20 years I have the grateful responsibility to pass our philosophy: to make the customer go a little further and take risks on their look. In 99% of the time customers appreciate our audacity. We appreciate their confidence! As we say in Spain: “Renovarse o morir!”
Do you have hobbies?
I’m a music lover, I like dancing and DJ. I also practice yoga for several years and attend the Macrobiotic Course.
