SKINCARE PIONEER

Salon D’Homme, can you explain the concept and your role?

While I was helping my girlfriend with her business in the past 4 years, we noticed that hardly any men visited her salon so I came up with the idea to change that forever. I learned all the skills to become a male skincare specialist and decided to open a male-friendly skincare salon: Salon d’Homme. A place where men feel comfortable to come in for skincare advice regarding the use of products and a routine but also for their monthly facial treatments. The Men’s Facial is the perfect monthly maintenance, the Men’s Peeling is slightly more intensive. The Men’s Microneedling treatment - which will be launched in November 2021 - will effectively improve skin condition, especially pigmentation and (acne) scars.

What is your ultimate Salon D’Homme dream?

I’m already living the dream! I’ve noticed there has been a huge need for something like Salon d’Homme. Guys from all over the place find me and ask me for online skincare advice. Over the past months, I’ve also created quite a stable client base in Amsterdam. I’m so happy to be able to educate guys about skincare and making sure they enjoy their monthly ’self care’ moment. In the future, I hope to be able to continue doing this on a larger scale, both online and at multiple locations! Don’t know where to start? The most important step in everyones routine is a daily moisturizer with SPF (’SPF is your BFF’). Use it every day, also on rainy days and during the winter months!
