About Gigi
GIGI is an international hair specialist
on hair & scalp. Her career started when she was 13
years old in Rio de Janeiro. Her 36 years of experience
and training with top French hair stylist Alex Alexander
has given her the ability to fashion hair according
to the clients facial structure and color skin. Her
training continued with Italian and German colorists
with hair cut styles for every type of problem hair.
Her clients represent a cross section of ages and professions,
including the entertainment industry.
She perfected Capillary hair formula
after her scalp was burned in an accident and doctors
predicted it will never grow back. With only part of
a family hair growth formula passed down by her elders
from the Brazilian rainforest, GIGI went on a quest
into the jungle to find the rest of the ingredients.
There she experimented for months with exotic plant
extracts until she discovered the correct combination
of herbs and roots.
After massaging the solution into her
scalp daily for three months, soft fuzzy patches appeared.
Ecstatic GIGI knew she would not have to wear wigs
for the rest of her life. Two and a half years later,
she had a full head of hair again.
Since the beginning of her career, she
has used her spirituality to help her clients ease
tension and relax their state of being. She is a vegetarian,
practices Yoga and has used meditation since early
childhood. Her energy and positive attitude expresses
her spiritual being which is the key to her success
and happiness.
In her Beverly Hills salon GIGI uses
only natural hair products – no alcohol, no ammonia
and very low peroxide. Even hair dyes she mixes herself
are vegetable based.
A poster hangs in her shop that expresses
her philosophy. "Man belongs to Earth, Earth does not
belong to man". |
