From Brazil,
with sharp scissors
José — "Junior" to everyone who knows him — carries more than a nickname. In Brazil, "Junior" is what they call sons who share their father's name; for José, the name grew into something of his own: identity, continuity, connection.
After nearly a decade running his own respected barbershop in Brazil, Junior and his family made the leap in 2024: a new chapter in Eindhoven. New language, new weather, new everything — and the same old craft, because good barbering travels.
For Junior, it was never just about haircuts. It's trust, conversation, and human connection — every client in the chair brings a different story, and that exchange is what makes the work matter. Now you'll find him on the ground floor of Microlab, surrounded by makers and creators from all over the world, bringing what he promised he'd bring: Brazilian warmth, positivity, and hospitality.
