Kapper/Hairdresser


NL: "Mijn naam is Jenny. Ik zit al 18 jaar in het kappersvak en ben in het bezit van bijna alle diploma's die je maar kan noemen. Ik heb ervaring in high-lights, balayage, knippen en föhnen. Ik knip zowel mannen als vrouwen en mij maakt het niet uit welk haartype je hebt, ik weet er wel raad mee. Mensen nog mooier maken dan ze al zijn is mijn passie en mijn motto! Ik beheers de Nederlandse taal, maar wil je Spaans met mij praten dan is dat ook geen probleem."

Haarstylist & visagist


NL: "Ik werk al 10 jaar bij kapperssalon El Encanto en ik ben ervaren zowel voor dames als voor herenkapsels. Ik ben bovendien gespecialiseerd in keratine-behandelingen.
Niets geeft me meer voldoening dan te zien hoe een klant de salon verlaat met een prachtig kapsel en een brede glimlach!
Jorge geeft mensen de ruimte waardoor zowel klanten als kappers zichzelf kunnen zijn. Ik ervaar de salon als een inspirerende werkplek, vooral ook door de locatie midden in de kleurrijke Reguliersdwarsstraat."

"I've worked in Amsterdam since 2007, the last 3 at El Encanto. I am a seasoned hairdresser from Connecticut/New York area. My talents were developed with respect for the natural growth of hair which is essential in wash and wear hair.
I have adapted this to the lifestyle here taking into account the wind and rain here by making most hairstyles reversible. My natural approach is carried into my eye for color.
Using the skin tone to guide I try to cover gray with the least possible maintenance and making highlights look sunkissed.
I spend time talking about your hair, how it grows and how to manage my cuts. An educated client is a happy client. Free consultation available upon request."
