Meet the Founder

Lincy Joji

Founder & Managing Director

Lincy Joji started Linza Makeover Studio in 2014 with one chair, a handful of trusted products and a belief that a salon visit should feel like a ritual, not a rush. Neighbours came for threading and facials; soon they came back with their daughters, their sisters and their brides.

As Founder & Managing Director, Lincy has grown Linza chair by chair into a complete family salon — for ladies, gents and entire wedding parties. She sets the studio's standards for hygiene and craft, hand-picks and trains every artist, and personally oversees the bridal consultations that have made Linza a name families trust across Cherthala.

Her approach has never changed: listen first, respect the skin, and create looks that reveal the person rather than mask them. It is why so many of our guests have been with us for years — and why they keep sending the people they love.

“Every person who sits in our chair deserves to leave feeling seen — not just styled.”
— Lincy Joji
