Luz Valero, little more than a hairdresser for Letizia

Queen Letizia has begun the week of events marked by the question of Princess Eleanor, of whom nothing is known since she left boarding school in Wales for the summer holidays. The appointment scheduled for next Tuesday, June 21, was to chair, along with King Felipe VI, the annual meeting of the members of the Board of Trustees of the Princess of Asturias Foundation, made up of twenty personalities, and are charged with determining the activities to be carried out, approving the budgets, determining the action criteria, etc. A great opportunity to see that rejuvenated haircut which the partner wears for less than a week. The Queen has decided to go to extremes and give her hair more freshness. How? Trim a few inches and lighten her load. An effect achieved by partially parading the ends to generate more volume, but with the length below the shoulders.

A new image with which Letizia welcomes the summer and that is the work of a person of her highest confidence. Who is it about? We talk about your trusted hairdresser, Light Valero† A woman a few years older than her who has become one of her greatest confidants and friends. They’ve known each other since Letizia’s stage as a TVE journalist, when she was already cutting her hair, a role she still plays today. He does not even hesitate to request vacations, days off or leave – if necessary – from the public body to comply with His Majesty’s requests. However, their relationship is not just a hairdresser client as both are close friends and the times the Queen went out with her friends, Luz was part of the group.

So much so that the magazine Hello has brought out latest plan Letizia shared with her hairdresser and friend: go look Joan of Arc at the stake to the Teatro Real in Madrid, a play starring Oscar-winning Marion Cotillard. The appointment took place last Tuesday, June 14, taking advantage of the fact that the Queen had no set agenda. She came dressed in black, with culottes, a sleeveless top, a denim blazer in her hand, and her hair in a ponytail. Likewise, he was very open to a dialogue with Luz.

Accustomed to always staying in the background, the person responsible for the haircut of Felipe VI’s wife has long been out of the news. She also doesn’t give interviews, but there are no indications or references to suggest that Letizia doesn’t count on her anymore, especially since her is something very personal and you don’t trust just anyone. The only statements we have of them are attributed to: the other chronicle from The world in 2015, when the press went looking for her outside the TVE studios in the city of Prado del Rey in Madrid. There he confirmed his work: “Yes, I usually help Doña Letizia. The cut is not just my creation; she and I always agree on decisions. But really I have nothing to say.”

It is known that she was born in Huete (Cuenca) and that she was there whenever the Asturian needed her, to the point that she did not hesitate to travel almost daily to La Zarzuela to do the Queen’s hair, regardless of the time. Of course, he stood behind his hair at events of great importance, such as the Princess of Asturias Awards, in Oviedo, where he traveled as part of the royal entourage.
