Meet Yiami Tungshang, the Senior Hairstylist with Savio John Pereira Salon, at the So tel Mumbai BKC. He is a young and dynamic hair prodigy, who believes that networking skills and being social media savvy are mandatory in order to leave a mark in this industry
Yiami Tungshang completed his training in hairstyling and hairdressing at the Juice Salon in 2007 and worked with them for three years, after which he moved to the Savio John Pereira Salon in 2009. He has earned certificates in Advance Colour and Cut from professional brands like Wella Professionals and L’Oréal Professionnel.
Getting started
“It was my childhood aspiration to be part of the fashion and hair industry, and when I moved to Mumbai, I seized every opportunity I could to achieve this goal. I learned the basics at Juice Salon, and it was definitely a life-changing experience. I owe it to them for building my foundation in this field. I have seen and worked with many experts throughout my career, but, my tenure with Savio J Pereira, has been the best. There is always something to learn! There is never a dull moment and the exposure is immense, which is a bonus.”
Role and responsibilities
“Presently, I am a Senior Hairstylist working under the wings of Pereira and alternate between the two salons of Pali Hill and BKC. The designation of senior hairstylist comes with the responsibility of anticipating client needs, analysing trends and incorporating them for clients, training my junior team and of course, looking after every customer so that they leave content with their SJP experience.”
