We are not hiring. We are choosing.

[sēnsei] and femme by [sēnsei] are a house for artists. Two kinds of artist come through this door: the next generation, and the masters. Both are held to one standard.

[ WHY THE HOUSE ]

A house for artists. And the standard by which their work reaches the world.

Inside this house, patrons are placed in the hands of a selected few. Not the busiest artists. The right ones. Here, artists work, travel and build under the same rules, the same guidelines and the same standard, built on respect, love and collaboration.

ΜΕΡΑΚΙ × ΗΘΟΣ = CULTURE
MERAKI

The soul you leave in the work. Undetectable to anyone measuring it, obvious to everyone receiving it.

ETHOS

Who you are when the guest is late, the room is difficult, and nobody is watching.

They multiply. They do not add.
Either one at zero, and the culture is zero.
[ TWO PATHS ]

Two doors. One standard.

SHU · THE NEXT GENERATIONHold the form.

For proven artists with years in the craft and a portfolio that speaks before they do. You bring your authority. We bring the rooms: the most demanding patrons, the events, international work.

[ THE ENVIRONMENT ]

Three rooms you will work in.

The PlatformOne artist. One patron. One hour.

Private appointments in villas, yachts, suites and residences across Athens, Mykonos, London and Dubai. No chair, no walk-ins, no volume.

The patron buys from the house. The house holds the price, the relationship and the risk. You hold the craft.

The EventsThe Platform, at scale.

Weddings, fashion weeks, backstage, private venues and collaborations with houses whose standards match ours.

Highest visibility, lowest frequency. The rooms nobody else can enter.

Films, campaigns and the Journal. Your own artist page, a place in our campaigns, and approved content to co-post.

[ THE FILM ]

Two minutes. The whole house.

The Platform, the events, the people and the standard, the way the patron sees it.

[ WHAT WE OWE YOU ]

Every feeling is owed twice.

SECURITY

Paid correctly, protected contractually, never asked to carry the house's risk.

AUTHORITY

Trusted to decide. We hire judgement, not obedience.

CALM

Never run at volume. Fewer, better, slower is the model.

CREATIVE

The craft is the point. Never reduced to throughput.

FREEDOM

You built your escape through the craft. The house protects it.

CONFIDENCE

Your name, your page, your work, seen at the right level.

ASK US ON WHATSAPP →
Who can join?

Barbers, hairstylists, colourists, makeup, lash, nail and massage artists. Two paths: the next generation, and the masters.

Do I need my own clients?

No. Patrons come through the house: private appointments at villas, hotels, yachts and residences.

Is this employment?

You work as an independent professional, under a written Verified Artist Agreement.

How am I paid?

Per completed appointment, by commission or fixed price agreed in writing. Tips are 100% yours. Earnings are settled on a regular schedule.

Is there a trial?

Yes. Every collaboration begins with a 14-day trial, so both sides can decide.

Is there a cost to join?

There is an induction kit, which covers your branded cape, your artist profile page and a place in our campaigns. It is explained in full at the first meeting.

Can the house help me grow my own brand?

Inside the house, your work is published on your artist page and in our campaigns. To build your own brand beyond the house, the Creative Studio works with artists as clients.

Do I need to speak English?

Our patrons are international, so conversational English is needed.
