Our Story

Hi, my name is Carina I am Portuguese but Born and Raised in South Africa, being fluent in both Portuguese and English makes communication with clients very straightforward. I work with love when it comes to Hair and it shows straight away, but I will always be honest even if it means being strict, I only want you to leave with beautiful healthy hair so I will teach and discipline you on how to take care of your hair as well as make positive changes that will fit in with your lifestyle in every way. Clients feeling comfortable in my salon and feeling that they can trust me with their hair is an amazing feeling.

I am a perfectionist and I confess to an obsession with creating healthy, glossy, luxurious hair and also an aim to create a welcoming and peaceful oasis away from today’s often frenetic lifestyle, where the focus is on the wellbeing and satisfaction of you, my Client. Judging from the years and reputation I believe I have already largely achieved this, with my contemporary Salon, located in the peaceful and beautiful surroundings of Vilamoura, Algarve.

I look forward to welcoming you to my Salon and providing you with the SWANK experience.
