Susana Sánchez has been working in the fashion industry as a make-up artist and hair stylist for more than 17 years.

"I started as an assistant and was incredibly lucky to learn from the best hairdressers and make-up artists of my time. I’ve been involved in both national and international fashion productions (Barcelona, Madrid, London, Paris…) and I feel proud that brands and professionals trust me when I started - and still do it.

During all these years I’ve combined my work in publicity and fashion, becoming a beauty expert at the end, but I still have the feeling I could learn something, and I deal every new project with passion.

I have collaborated with great companies such as Shiseido, Joico, Stilla, Sebastian Professional, Redken, L'Oréal, and now I'm sponsored by Dior and Moroccanoil.

I'm based in Barcelona, but take pleasure in travelling and working all over the world."
