This Brazilian-born hairdresser has trained under creative directors from the London Vidal Sassoon academy, Tony and Guy, and from L'oreal.

Working at a young age with fashion designers, she found herself in love with the industry. After her move to the US, she immediately was hired by Patrick Suissa where she started her training and became a very successful stylist in DC and an important member of the creative team with very high-profile clients and celebrities. She later joined George at the Four Seasons salon at the Four Seasons Hotel in Georgetown DC where she was a key team player helping to grow the business with her talent and energy. Lately, she is at OKYO Salon where she joined a very strong group of talented stylists.

Mariangela's love for colors made her specialize in color corrections and hair treatments that enhance the quality and health of the hair. And smart hair cuts that need little maintenance have been another signature work.

Mariangela says: "I love the challenge of coloring the hair and cutting it to enhance it's natural beauty."
