Ei-Co

Collie (Eli) Vanunu, joint head of the „Ei-Co“, team, was born in 1968, near Haifa. He is an enthusiastic guitarist and musician, but when he was just 14 years old he also started cutting his friends’ hair. And then, he recalls, a whole new world opened up for him when he began his apprenticeship as a hairstylist.
Even though he now has a recording studio in his home and is a virtuoso performer on his instrument, he has never regretted his choice of career.
With his partner, Ethan Naim, the Israeli operates two of the most up-and-coming salons in Tel Aviv, with a total staff of 17 employees.
