Stylish Father’s Day at Olivia

On Friday, June 23rd, Olivia Business Centre invited men (and not only) to a special meeting on the occasion of Father’s Day. There was something about men’s fashion and beauty, about their own style and good taste. And how to get a good haircut or shave and how to prepare your beard so that you can comb it well. The afternoon was seasoned with… with a bit of magic.

The secrets of the male world were explored by Modny Dad, i.e. Michał Będźmirowski and Mikey barber, a valued talented barber from Gdynia from Old School BarberShop & Tattoo Ink. The guests were surprised (and enchanted!) by the excellent performer and illusionist Mr. Li, whose artistic workshop is a combination of artistry and ease.

The guests of the meeting were awaited by m.in. A barber craft show, a magic show and attractive prizes in the competition. There was also a children’s corner, so we encouraged you to bring your children.
