Hola, I'm Patty Ayala, the founder and CEO of UNIQO. Creating is my passion, and my journey as a hair artist began in my mother’s salon in Mexico. Since those early days, my love for hair styling has taken me around the world, where I’ve been able to learn, grow, and share my expertise. I am deeply inspired by fashion and enjoy crafting hairstyles that blend creativity and individuality.
