How did your journey in hairdressing begin?

“Hairdressing started as a passion and quickly became my lifelong career. From the moment I began training, I was drawn to colour,  how subtle changes in tone and light could completely transform someone’s look and confidence.”

Two decades later, Eva continues to refine her craft, staying current with evolving techniques while grounded in strong technical foundations.

Why did you choose to specialise in colour?

“Colour is endlessly creative and incredibly technical at the same time. No two clients are ever the same — skin tone, lifestyle, hair history — everything influences the final result. I love that balance between artistry and precision.”

Eva’s philosophy: healthy hair first, stunning colour always.

Your signature services?

Balayage – Soft, natural, seamlessly blended dimension
Highlights – Luminous brightness with flawless transitions
Corrective Colour – Restoring balance, tone, and confidence
Custom Colour Design – Tailored shades that enhance natural beauty

Whether it’s sun-kissed subtlety or a bold reinvention, Eva creates colour that grows out beautifully and suits each client’s lifestyle.

What defines your approach behind the chair?

“Listening. A great result starts long before the colour is applied. I want clients to feel understood — not just in what they want today, but how they want to feel every day after they leave the salon.”

Eva carefully designs colour plans that consider:

✔ Face shape & skin tone
✔ Hair condition & history
✔ Maintenance preferences
✔ Personal style

What makes balayage and highlights so special to you?

“They’re transformative but elegant. Done properly, they add movement, light, and depth without harsh lines. It’s about creating colour that looks effortless, even though it requires expert technique.”

Eva is known for her soft blends, natural transitions, and luxurious dimension.
