Under the hands of hair artist Tran Mai Lan, hair transcends the limits of technique, becoming a medium to sketch a world full of inspiration. With over twenty years of dedication, she has created works that are not only sharp in craftsmanship but also rich in emotional resonance—where beauty is not only seen but also deeply felt.
The courage shaped from golden milestones
From her earliest days in the profession, hair artist Tran Mai Lan already stood out: serving as a judge at Worldskill ASEAN Singapore 2023, a member of the evaluation council at the Hair Office Final Round by HairWorld magazine, and a familiar guest on television programs such as Cafe Sang VTV3 and Let’s Style VTV6. These milestones affirm her position as a hairstylist who consistently upholds professionalism, talent, and a pioneering spirit.
Currently, as Technical Director at MaiLan Hair Salon, she continues to assert her leading role. In this position, she not only manages but also directly conveys her refined beauty philosophy into every creation and service. Each hairstyle executed here bears the hallmark of creativity and dedication, serving as proof of the caliber of a brand inseparably tied to the name of hair artist Mai Lan.
What makes her journey even more enduring is her long-term bond with Greenlife. From the very beginning, she chose to accompany the company as both a source of trust and a foundation. This partnership has enabled her to access international standards, nurture her spirit of innovation, and affirm her image as a pioneer in the field. To her, Greenlife is like a companion—sharing the same values and nurturing achievements that continue to grow in perfection.
A professional philosophy as if a symphony of emotions
What sustains the lasting appeal of hair artist Tran Mai Lan is her deeply human-centered philosophy of the craft. For her, hair goes beyond enhancing appearance—it becomes a mirror reflecting one’s emotions and inner strength. “Work with your hands, but put your heart into it” is the mantra that reminds her to preserve sensitivity in every detail and infuse positive energy into each creation.
Every time she holds her scissors, she listens to her client’s story in order to breathe life into every cut and every shade. It might mark an important milestone, a new joy, or a desire for transformation. When the hairstyle is complete, the person walking out carries not just a refreshed look, but also renewed confidence and a brighter spirit.
This approach also guides her path in education. At Unibeauty – Unidesign, where she serves as Academic Director, each lesson begins with technical fundamentals but extends to patience, responsibility, and respect for clients. Students are taught to approach hairstyling as a form of art, where every cut is intertwined with care and dedication. With her consistency and sense of responsibility, Tran Mai Lan inspires the younger generation to embrace pride and passion for the craft, helping them step forward with confidence on their creative journey.
Greenlife: Harmony from trust to values
In her professional journey, hair artist Tran Mai Lan has chosen Greenlife as a trusted companion. She once shared that the reason was simple: the brand’s philosophy aligns perfectly with her own professional beliefs. C:EHKO—the German brand distributed by Greenlife—embodies two key elements: consumer safety and environmental responsibility. These are also the very principles she has steadfastly upheld for years: protecting human beauty while preserving nature.
Having witnessed Greenlife’s growth over the past 15 years, she cannot hide her pride. For her, a truly strong brand is one with a clear direction that remains faithful to its founding philosophy. Greenlife has achieved exactly that, becoming a bridge between Vietnamese hairstylists and world-class international products.
The most memorable milestone along that journey was Greenlife’s 5th anniversary celebration aboard a cruise in Ha Long Bay. The majestic natural scenery, the color collections inspired by the sea, and the presence of close colleagues created an unforgettable evening. To her, it was proof of long-term commitment—where art, nature, and people came together in perfect harmony.
Inspiration for succeeding generations
For her, the greatest value of the profession lies in inspiring the next generation. She believes that true credibility is built on a solid foundation of skills, a spirit of continuous learning, and wholehearted dedication to every hairstyle. She often reminds her students: “Keep learning as long as you still have even one minute in the profession.” This message is, first and foremost, a promise to herself, but also a guiding principle for young stylists to sustain their passion and pride.
Whether appearing on television or at major events, her presence always carries a single message: hairstyling is an art, a culture, and a way of honoring people. This legacy has been shaped by the trust of clients, the respect of colleagues, and the affection of students. She is living proof that when one devotes their heart entirely to the craft, lasting value will naturally be created.
