Childhood
Vlad was born on August 9, 1972 in the capital of the Azerbaijani USSR - the city of Baku. The family lived in the Nasimi region, people called this place “Armenikend”, that is, an Armenian settlement. In fact, a lot of people of this nationality lived there, even the street where Vladislav grew up was called Yerevan Avenue (later renamed Vagif Avenue).
Despite the fact that Vlad is a fourth-generation Baku, with 80% Ukrainian and 20% Russian blood running through his veins, his ancestors in the distant past came to Azerbaijan from Volgograd (then called Tsaritsyn) and Voronezh. One of his grandfathers and two grandmothers were born and raised in the beautiful city of Baku. Only my paternal grandfather, fleeing hunger, came to Azerbaijan to work in the 1930s. Here, during the Great Patriotic War, he met Vlad’s grandmother, who then worked in a military hospital.
Everyone in the Lisovets family were hereditary railway workers. Father Vasily worked as a locomotive driver, mother Tatyana worked as a chemist in a railway laboratory. Thanks to this, Vlad was always provided with a free trip to any point of the Soviet Union by rail, and his older brother vacationed every summer in a specialized pioneer camp for children of railway workers.
The family lived in a two-story house, there were eight apartments in their entrance, and almost all of them were inhabited by people of different nationalities. Baku has always been considered an international city. Children were raised in the same spirit; from an early age they were instilled with respect for the culture of other nationalities. There was practically no difference between the guys in the yard. Well, except that Azerbaijani boys were considered calmer and less risky, other children were hectic and mischievous.
Baku has always been a very lively city, and this was reflected in the residents of the courtyard in which Vlad grew up. Children were constantly playing with something, adults often gathered in the yard in their free time from work.
Vlad remembers his childhood as a very happy time. After all, he was at sea almost all year round, ate an abundance of fresh, delicious fruit, and on hot days he played “dipping” with his friends. The boy spent part of his summer holidays with his grandmother, who lived in Balajary (an urban-type settlement in Azerbaijan on the Absheron Peninsula).
Vladislav is a very sensitive person to smells. The city of his childhood was forever remembered by him for its amazing mixture of aromas - oil, sea, old carpets and wedding pilaf. This is a very characteristic smell, and Vlad always smells it as soon as he arrives at home.
Biography
Vladislav Lisovets is known throughout the world as a talented stylist, hairstyle and interior designer, and hairdresser. The man also hosts programs and is a famous person at social parties.
Childhood and school years
Vladislav was born on August 9, 2972 in the capital of Azeybarjan, Baku. His parents did not belong to this nationality, but simply fled from Ukraine and Russia in the thirties of the twentieth century. It was in this sunny country that the celebrity’s grandparents escaped hunger and subsequently gave birth to two children.
Both Vladislav’s mother and father were also born in Baku. The relatives had nothing to do with the world of art and creativity. They worked in factories and railroads. However, it was Vlad and his older brother who grew up as artistic children.
At the age of seven, Lisovets was sent to study in a ballet club and studied in it for several years. Afterwards, the boy realized that he did not want to connect his life with ballet and quit training.
The school curriculum was very easy for Vladislav, and he coped with any tasks. Already in high school, the guy became interested in hairdressing and began to make money from it.
The first clients were girls we knew and their friends. Vlad enjoyed not only receiving money, but also the very transformation of people into bright and beautiful personalities. It was at this time that Lisovets first thought about a career as a stylist.
Youth and relocation
Despite this desire to become a hairdresser, Vladislav continued to dance after school, choosing a direction that was more free in self-expression. He entered a choreographic school, where he was taught some techniques and instilled a taste for good music and manners.
After graduating from college, Lisovets worked for some time as a stylist and hairdresser in his native Baku , but, having decided that he needed to move further in this direction, he went to Moscow. This happened in 1994.
Life in the capital is very expensive, so Vladislav immediately had to look for a job in his specialty. After several shifts of work, he was lucky enough to get a job in a small hairdressing salon with a special location - the salon was located in the bowels of the Ostankino TV tower. Therefore, Lisovets often had celebrity clients.
One of them were members of the Agatha Christie group. After a successful haircut, they invited Vlad to appear in their video, which instantly made the stylist famous. All the celebrities paid attention to the guy and soon he was already filming with Kristina Orbakaite and others.
Another unexpected surprise and pleasant coincidence happened two years after the move. On the street, Vlad was approached by a stranger who liked Lisovets’s appearance.
He offered him to work as a fashion model, but after he learned that Vladislav was already working as a stylist and was successful in this business, he told him about an open vacancy in one of the leading beauty salons in Moscow. Lisovets immediately agreed.
A few years later, Vlad became a personal stylist for the Blestyaschiye group , having worked with them since the creation of the group. Then Valery Leontyev began working with the stylist.
After a series of successful projects, it suddenly became clear that it was not at all necessary to work in someone else’s salon, and Lisovets opened his own beauty studio, which is very popular among the stars.

Vladislav also opened his own style school - lisoschool, where fashion experts share knowledge with students.
A successful career became the beginning of new achievements for Vlad, as he entered a university and graduated with a degree in psychology.
Working on television
The filmography of Vladislav Lisovets as an actor consists of many famous Russian projects, including “Daddy’s Daughters”, “Happy March 8, Men!”, “Zaitsev +1”. In 2016-2017, he starred in the project “Favorites” on Friday.
There was a rumor in star circles that Vlad was Pavel Volya’s brother. Both famous men denied this information.
He founded the program “Beauty Requires” and “Beauty Week”, in which he himself was the presenter.
Personal life
At the age of 25, Vlad married his chosen one, whom he had previously met for several months. The marriage was dissolved two years later, as the famous stylist realized that he and his wife had too different views on life. There were rumors about Vlad's non-standard orientation, but this is not true.
Despite the fact that Vlad is already over 45 years old, he is not married and has no children. In life, he values freedom of choice and movement most of all, but notes that this does not mean a complete absence of connections and loves. There is love in his life that does not limit him.
In his free time, the stylist loves to travel, experiment with looks and meet with friends . As he himself says, he has to notice many little things around him in order to become successful and better understand women and the world in which he lives.

Youth
Vladislav's youth was spent in continuous walks. Every day he walked around his beloved city, often alone, thought a lot, noted something new for himself. I reached the Old Fortress “Ichere-Sheher” (this is an ancient residential area, now a historical and architectural reserve). It was here that he felt the roots and history of the city of Baku, which was imprinted on the narrow streets of the fortress. He still loves such walks. No city on earth charges Vlad as much as Baku. Everything connected with him and Azerbaijan is sacred for the stylist.
He studied well, studied at music and ballet schools. The only problem he had in his youth was his appearance. Vlad always liked to dress brightly, which the girls really liked and annoyed the boys. In unpleasant situations he had to somehow get out, but in especially dangerous cases he could complain to his older brother. True, such moments arose extremely rarely. Vladislav was basically loved and respected by everyone, even his brother’s friends, who were three and a half years older. Before the disco, many girls came up to Vlad and consulted with him: whether they had put on their makeup correctly, combed their bangs, or chosen jewelry.
When Vladislav was growing up, no one knew the word “stylist” in the Soviet Union, so it cannot be said that the boy dreamed of this profession. He just always wanted nice people, beauty and prosperity to be around. He always gave his friends advice on clothes, tried to cut their hair, sewed some kind of overalls for teddy bears, and made jewelry by hand. Vlad saw himself more as a decorator when he found himself at a friend’s house and made comments that their carpet was in the wrong place and the chandelier needed to be re-hanged.
When Vladislav, at the age of fifteen, told his parents that he wanted to study to become a “general-profile hairdresser,” they were not delighted. My father generally insisted that Vlad should continue the dynasty of railway workers. Mom, despite the fact that she also had a tough character, let her son study and allowed him to become an individual. Dad watched Vladislav with caution for a long time and considered his chosen profession frivolous. But when my son gave him a good haircut a couple of times, he said: “Yes, you’re a good hairdresser.”
When was the calling determined?
In high school, young Lisovets began to pay more attention to the appearance of the people around him. At the same time, he began to develop a sense of what hair color or hairstyle would suit this or that person. The first people on whom young Lisovets tried his skill were his family.
One day in the salon of his older brother’s girlfriend made an indelible impression on the young man. There he was not only able to observe the work of professionals, but also freely express his opinion on the vision of the image of incoming clients. He was also able to see good results when the master listened to his opinion.

All this prompted Lisovets to devote his life to the desire to make the people around him more beautiful. He received his first education as a general hairdresser.
In his more mature years, the stylist noticed that almost 90% of men in his profession considered themselves to be sexual minorities. They believe that this helps them to more subtly feel the female images being created. But as Vlad Lisovets himself notes, his own life and orientation have not changed because of this.
Moving to Moscow
After completing his studies, Vladislav worked for some time as a hairdresser in Baku. In 1994, he decided to visit Moscow, where his friends had repeatedly invited him, and unexpectedly for himself, he remained in this city. The huge metropolis did not frighten him; on the contrary, at some point Vlad caught himself thinking that he liked Moscow.
During the first two years, I sometimes had a desire to return to my homeland; I often saw Baku in my dreams and, waking up at night, felt that after such dreams there were tears in his eyes. But the desire to move on and achieve something new overpowered. At some point, Vlad promised himself that he would not return home until he achieved some significant results in Moscow.
He got a job in a hairdressing salon attached to the body. Famous people often came here, so after some time Vlad became a stylist for the Agatha Christie group. Lisovets' talent was also noticed by other show business stars, and soon he was already collaborating with Irina Ponarovskaya and Valery Leontyev. Later, the “Brilliant” group, Anita Tsoi, Zhanna Friske, and Abraham Russo became his regular clients.
According to Vlad, any good hairdresser, to consolidate success, sooner or later must open his own salon. At some point, he also had a desire to create comfortable working conditions for himself. There were a lot of ideas, but their implementation turned out to be more difficult. He recalls with horror how long he had to stand in lines at various government agencies to obtain permits, documents, collect the necessary papers, and recruit a team. At first I did everything intuitively, but it soon became clear that Vladislav had an excellent streak as a businessman.
He did everything himself and with his own money, developed the design of the project, went to the housing office for certificates, ordered a technical passport from the BTI, and resolved the issue of electricity supply with Mosenergo. He was advised to hire an assistant purely for organizational issues, but Vlad had a different opinion on this matter: if you do everything yourself, then you will have a completely different attitude towards business.
In his salons, in addition to Vlad himself, three masters work, and they have been with him from the very beginning, there is no turnover in his team. Lisovets treated the selection of personnel with particular care - he studied the work, communicated, and looked closely at people. After all, any new person appearing in a team can destroy it from the inside. And for Vlad the team is like family, he values them very much.
Vladislav managed to return to his native Baku only fifteen years after leaving. And only then did he understand why this city was so important to him. Real people live here, absolutely everyone is friendly, in two days you can make a friend, and at the same time you will feel like you have known him all your life. In Moscow, he was never able to feel 100% at home. But the parents, whom Vlad moved to the Russian capital a long time ago, on the contrary, are very happy that they live in Moscow.

“A woman should glow from within. She should radiate happiness. A man will never remember what a woman was wearing or what kind of manicure she had. A normal man remembers the smell, the voice,” says Vladislav Lisovets, whose advice many stars listen to. In clothes he promotes naturalness, in life - honesty, and in words - directness.
As he said, the main secret of his success and relevance among the Russian elite is not his professional abilities and skills (although this is also, of course, very important), but his communication skills. “I know how to communicate with people!” says Vladislav Lisovets about himself.

“Style is what makes others look at a person with interest,” says Vlad.
“For me, the ideal image consists of the ability to emphasize one’s individuality using trends, and the ability to evoke admiration from others by being different from others,” noted the master.
“Thanks to fashion, people change and can be different,” the stylist is sure.
“If a professional does not follow fashion trends, then he automatically becomes unfashionable,” he explained.
“Never think that beauty is for sale - beauty can only be created,” Lisovets pointed out.

Was married. He got married at the age of 25, shortly after moving to Moscow. The marriage lasted only two years.

They haven't communicated for many years. Vlad does not name his ex-wife - according to him, they agreed with her.
Lives alone. But he doesn’t consider himself lonely: “I’m not alone. I am selfish, I am free, but I am not alone. I have friends, my peers, in whose homes you need to be very careful. If you drink tea, God forbid if you put the cup in the wrong place. This is loneliness and old age, although these people are not adults. I pay attention to what is happening around me and try to draw conclusions.”

Fashion expert advice
According to Vladislav, style is what distinguishes a person from others and draws attention to him. This could be clothing, manners, behavior, but it’s better when everything is combined. The inner world must be in contact with the outer world, because one does not work without the other. An image is like a business card that conveys a person’s inner world.
For people who want to always look fashionable, Vladislav advises, first of all, not to dress up. You can’t grab onto all the trends at once and try them on yourself. First you need to pick a couple of the most attractive things and play with them. You should never overuse complex hairstyles and makeup. And be sure to complement any outfit with a sincere smile.
There are things that a stylist does not accept in this life, for example, silicone lips on women. In his understanding, a beautiful woman should have kind eyes and at the same time a languid look, always smiling, moderately mannered and always 100% well-groomed.
A television
Vlad has an amazing quality - he has always managed to convince people of their beauty and effectiveness. Many acquaintances and friends told him that he looked and spoke well on camera. Perhaps it was precisely these two criteria that were guided by the producers of the Domashny television channel when they invited Vladislav to host the “Female Form” program. He always speaks about women with special warmth, which is very suitable for a calm, cozy, warm and kind channel. They called him and offered to host the show, and Lisovets agreed without hesitation. The stylist has long wanted to try himself as a presenter.
Vlad likes it when girls of completely different sizes come to the program, tall and short, thin and plump, and he makes them believe in their beauty. Soon the stylist was offered to lead two more projects: “Beauty Demands” and “Style Week”.
Communication with fans
Admirers of Vladislav Lisovets' talent were most active in St. Petersburg. So, in honor of the stylist, a club was opened in 2012. And annual meetings are held in the park of the 300th anniversary of St. Petersburg.
To keep fans up to date with everything new in his personal and creative life, the stylist maintains 2 blogs on Instagram. The first of them is entirely dedicated to art, it contains photos of models, new works performed by the stylist or in one of his salons.

The second page reflects the ordinary life of a stylist outside of his professional activities. The photographs posted on it give a complete picture of the master’s personality, his daily activities, hobbies and social circle. About 300,000 people follow information updates on this resource.
Lisovets does not hide his ideas about life, fashion, beauty and style. He shares his opinions in an interview. The personal life and orientation of Vlad Lisovets speak of love for the female sex. Thus, he considers naturalness to be the main advantage in the image of the weaker sex. It concerns clothing, hair color, length of eyelashes and nails. And this is what he strives for in the process of creating new images.
Hobbies, character, life principles
In everyday life, Vlad is absolutely not a pretentious person, he is cool, interesting, sociable and positive. Simple and open, knows how to find contact with different people. Sometimes he gets depressed, but does not forbid himself to do so. In sadness, interesting and correct thoughts come to him, an understanding of some difficult life situations.
He feels good when he sleeps little; five hours is enough for Vladislav. If he has slept for more than seven hours, he always wakes up in a bad mood, walks around sleepy and exhausted all day, and is not interested in everything around him.
He tries to drink rarely. He says that even though alcohol makes you happy in the evening, it’s hard to put your thoughts together in the morning. His favorite food is cottage cheese, pancakes, cakes and foie gras, but Lisovets limits himself to this and rarely allows it, otherwise he can later lose his appearance.
Outwardly, he considers the ideal female representatives of show business - the editor-in-chief of the magazine “Hello!” Svetlana Bondarchuk and singers Vera Brezhneva, Sati Kazanova, Katie Topuria (soloist of the group “A-studio”). Previously, the first in this row was his beloved friend Zhanna Friske. Among the men, he notes the delicate, handsome and fit Ivan Urgant; it is also always pleasant to look at TV presenter Dmitry Shepelev.
Vlad calls actor Alain Delon a sex symbol. According to Lisovets, in the twentieth century it was this Frenchman who had the greatest influence on the canons of men's fashion and beauty.
The standard of a handsome man for Vlad is actor Pierce Brosnan. He ages very gracefully and becomes even more courageous over the years. Among women, the stylist likes actress Cate Blanchett most; her inner beauty overshadows her appearance, thereby making her even more attractive.
Vladislav considers the main achievement of his life to be the fact that he managed to transport his parents to Moscow. He is proud that mom and dad live in excellent conditions.
Personal life
Vlad was already married once, however, the marriage was short-lived, lasting two years. He was then barely twenty-five years old. The wife was a little younger than Vladislav, a cheerful, caring and intelligent woman. But soon after the wedding, he became bored with her due to her excessive simplicity. He loves ordinary people, but only when they are interesting. If spouses stop studying each other and finding something new, then it’s better to separate. They haven't communicated for many years. Vlad does not name his ex-wife, because during the divorce she asked him about it.
Vladislav says that the age has already crept up when he seriously thought about family and children. But for now, only his beloved cats live in the apartment with him.
