PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL
SKILLS (about me)
My name is Vítor Costa and I was born in
Guimaraes but currently living in Lisbon. I’ve
completed my education in secondary
school in Fafe and attended the 1st year of
architecture, at the Luisiana University of
Porto. Unfortunately I was diagnosed with
cancer and due to treatments I had no other
chance but to give up on studying.
Unintentionally, to find out how to occupy
my time, I went to the hairdresser, learned to
develop skills, only with basic training and to
see colleagues working! I opened my hair
salon in 2017 but I had to close doors due to
the covid.
While working I’veI created my own network
of clients from scratch, because I am very
communicative, focused and dedicated. I
managed my own business, customer
agenda and finances, although I was always
in contact with my official account to help
and monitor the financial and bureaucratic
management of the business and brand.
EDUCATION
Bachelor in architecture – Universidade
Lusiada, Porto
Technical Hairdresser Certificate – L'oreal
Academy
Creative Cutting & Coloring – Toni&Guy.
