THE LATEST HAIR STYLES AND BEATY TIPS BY THE MONACO TRENDSETTER VLADIMIR USACHEV

When did you move to Monaco?

I’ve been here for seven years. I like the professional atmosphere, the numerous luxury events, the location close to the fashion capital Milan, which helps me grow and work to the max in the global fashion industry.

In Moscow, I reached my professional peak. I worked as a stylist at the Aldo Coppola salon in Zhukovka, with almost all of my clients being known either in secular or business circles, which is definitely the A-list of the Russian establishment. Further on, I could open my own salon in Moscow and develop, like many of my colleagues, in this direction, but it’s all local. I wished to stay in the Aldo Coppola team, becoming not just a stylist, but a top manager, a co-owner of the salon. My dream has come true in Monte Carlo. Now I realize how happy I am: I worked with a huge number of designers, magazines, actors, artists, Hollywood stars. In retrospect, I recall with pride and awe my studies in Los Angeles, New York, Paris, Milan, Moscow. Numerous contests took so much effort and persistence. I’ll never forget the overwhelming emotion after participating in the first Giorgio Armani fashion show and the work on my first cover for Vogue.

Are you a perfectionist?

Oh, yes, I think over every detail, from a cup of coffee and a glass of champagne to the global, professional details that provide comfort and convenience for my clients. When I started, the first step for me was to open a high level service salon, cozy, bright and welcoming atmosphere in the heart of Monte Carlo, because it is the most advantageous location. The second was to make a team to be proud of. All the rest is art. You can be sure not to be late for any event, because your hair, makeup, manicure and pedicure can be done simultaneously. I also clearly understand the nuances of life in Monaco. For this purpose, we have a VIP room where you can escape from the noise and attention, surrendering to harmony and inner beauty.

Dreams come true in Monte Carlo.

What kind of events do you participate in?

Aldo Coppola is a regular participant of fashion shows and collaborates with famous fashion brands such as Giorgio Armani, Valentino, Dior, Calvin Klein, for a reason, we have always positioned ourselves as trendsetters. Twice a year, Aldo Coppola releases new collections of hairstyles, haircuts, hair coloring, and makeup trends. My work is about art, which would simply die without creative experimentation. We know the answer to the question “What will be trendy tomorrow?”

You have incredible energy. What do you need to keep up with the fashion? It is impossible to buy one fashionable handbag and be in trend. Before going out with it, you need to pick the right look, prepare the body, face, and hair. It’s a serious algorithm. Going back to your question, before I will speak about trends, you must be prepared for a long journey, including hair therapy and care in the context of course treatments, the selection of the right products, as well as the consultation with the master. Only in this case you will have a shiny, flowing, sexy hairstyle that requires minimal styling. At Aldo Coppola Monte-Carlo, many treatments have already become legendary, such as the hair SPA, henna treatments, or our Hair Mineral Relax ampoules, which have conquered and became “must have” for so many our customers.

We are moving forward all the time so the formulas of even the best products are constantly being improved, the lines of haircare products are always renew with new favorites. For maximum comfort for our customers we offer mobile services seven days a week, from Menton to Saint-Tropez.

As for the hair care services, Aldo Coppola brand goes for absolutely natural components of haircare, revitalization and anti-hairloss products consists of henna, essential oils and plants extracts, without parabens or silicones.

Which treatments are the basic?

For example, Mediterranean Complex, an exclusive hair care line. All of its products are based on active ingredients from the Mediterranean region and are rich in precious compounds for the healthy hair. Natural oils, plant and fruit extracts with nourishing and moisturizing properties, mixed with white sugar, enhance the beauty, well-being and vitality of the hair and scalp. I also would like to mention the collagen hair treatment. This is another ‘must have” treatment in Aldo Coppola Monte Carlo. The product penetrates deep into the hair structure and forms a film. After the treatment, the hair immediately becomes smooth, soft, thicker and more shiny.

What are the hairstyle trends this season?

This year in trend is “messy hair”look. Casual, “shaggy” haircuts and styling looks great on all types of hair. It is important that hairstyle looks very light and hair keep freely falling on the face. Another trendy look is glossy hair! Perfectly smooth, as if sprinkled with liquid glitter. Hairstyle options can be very different, the main rule of the trend is impeccable glossy smoothness. Bob haircut is also very popular. A modern interpretation of the classic bob style is back in trend, it is great for fine hair as it can add texture and volume. Also in trend is hair accessories. I am sure that we will see a lot of accessories on the catwalks: headbands, massive metal chains or hoops, silk elastic bands, hair pins.

What are the make up trends this season?

The major trend is the makeup “no make up”. This is the right solution for every day. The coal-black is not going anywhere this season, whether we’re talking about graphic eyeliner or gray Smokey, it always creates a hypnotic look. Retro is back, classic red lipstick and layered mascara is the best solution for any occasion.

Where is the secret of the perfect look? The secret of perfect looks is behind the doors of Aldo Coppola Monte- Carlo salon. In the heart of Monaco, opposite Casino, next to the major hotels. A great advantage is the time saving you will get the perfect look in 1.5 hours from the leading experts of Aldo Coppola Monte Carlo, who have been working in the parallel services format for many years.
