Cláudio Pacheco is a Celebrity and Fashion Hair Stylist internationally recognized for his expertise and passion for hair colour. His journey began early: at just 17 years old, he was named Portugal’s Best Young Talent, a milestone that marked the start of a career driven by excellence, curiosity, and creative ambition.

In 2012, Cláudio was awarded Best Colour Technician, reinforcing his reputation as a colour specialist with a refined technical eye. Most recently, in 2026, he was honoured with the Forbes Salon Leaders of the Year award, recognizing both his professional impact and leadership within the industry.

Born into hairdressing, Cláudio began his career in his mother’s salon, where he developed strong technical foundations and a deep respect for the craft and its human dimension. This early influence continues to shape his work today.

He is the co-founder and Art Director of Chiado Studio, his hair studio located in the heart of Lisbon’s Chiado district, where creativity, technique, and contemporary luxury converge.

Cláudio’s work spans editorial, fashion, and celebrity styling, with collaborations including Vogue, GQ, and Numéro. He works daily with Portuguese and international celebrities and has built his career across some of the most respected salons.

Education remains at the core of his philosophy — both teaching and learning — driven by an unwavering passion for his craft and a constant pursuit of excellence.
