Cristobal was my first client as a freelance designer, and still is a client. The salon was established in 1997. Since then, my services have expanded as our trust and friendship have grown, from designer to business operations and decision maker. Next year we will both be celebrating the 15th anniversary of our respective ventures. As fashion trends have changed over the past 14 years, the salon brand has evolved and matured. The logo or logotype has been kept intact, it was originally designed to be used in a variety of applications and our identity allows for it to work beside any co-branded effort.
The use of the color blue as a corporate hue, was a strategy to differentiate from other salons. I realized nobody was using blue, very unexpected and too manly. Most of the professional beauticians at the salon were male then, and blue inspires a sense of confidence, trust, stability, maturity and reliability.
The Cristobal Salon team features a selected group of stylists specialized in hair color, cut, style, manicure, pedicure and beauty treatments. Our exclusive salon offers impeccable services and sponsors internationally renowned products of the highest quality available. We use and represent nature conscious brands like Phyto and Aveda, two of the best hair care products in the beauty care industry. The owner of the salon, Cristobal Berrios, is a celebrated hair colorist, certified by the American Board of Certified Hair Colorists.
