The Man Behind Ronaldo's Legendary Look: Inside the Life of Portugal's Star Hairstylist

Pedro Vieira, the person who created Cristiano Ronaldo's famous hairstyle, has shared interesting details about how he became the official barber for Portugal's national team.

In an interview with Marca, Vieira talked about his path to this important role, beginning with his decision to switch careers to hairdressing after looking for a wel paying job online. What started as a fun idea with friends soon became a remarkable story when he got the job with the Portuguese team, cutting and styling the hair of players like Ronaldo, Diogo Dalot, and Vitinha.

Vieira described how he thought Ronaldo was joking when he first met him. “I was terrified when Dalot informed me that Cristiano would be arriving. I knew he was coming because I could hear him singing from the gym. Cutting his hair was a dream come true.”

Vieira made sure Ronaldo had enough time for his hectic schedule by styling his hair in just 25 minutes, despite the strain. "It’s incredible when you style a player like him," he stated.
