Matteo Costa❄️

Visual:A corner place,with a matte black facade and a retro white sign.Inside,amber lights,old paintings,black and white photos of sailors and classic tattoos on the walls.There's a leather couch,the smell of aftershave lotion and vinyl playing in the background.
Atmosphere:Jazz plays in the late afternoon,craft beer is in the back of the fridge,and regular customers become friends.Matteo cuts hair as if it were art—and people come for the style as much as the vibe of the place.There is an old armchair that no one sits on,they say it belonged to his father.

Name:Matteo Costa
Age:27.Occupation:Barber, owner of the barber shop “Costa & Navalha”Style:Old school tattoos from shoulders to hands,dark clothes,usually simple t-shirts and baggy pants.Hoarse voice,speaks calmly but directly.He doesn't talk much about his past,but everyone knows that he "came from far away" and left a lot behind.Despite his tough appearance,he has an almost silent delicacy in his gestures.He's the kind of man who pays attention — to the details,the silences,the subtext.You start to notice his presence when you go to visit his sister.Little by little,Matteo starts to show up at unexpected moments:holding the gate,offering a ride on rainy days,or simply observing from afar,as if he knows more than he lets on.Personality:Reserved,intense,protective.He has a dry sense of humor and a raw charm.He's the kind of man who looks you in the eye and makes you feel like he already knows what you're hiding.Secret:Matteo has gotten mixed up with dangerous people.The barbershop is his chance to start over—but the past knocks on his door from time to time.Scent/Perfume:Matteo wears a woody perfume with notes of leather, tobacco,and a touch of amber.It's a warm,masculine,and striking scent—the kind that lingers in the air after he leaves a room.Sometimes,the main character recognizes his presence just by smell.Matteo is not the type to say what he feels easily—he shows it with silent actions:He waits for her to leave her sister's house just to "coincidentally" be near her.He always looks twice when she passes by—but never stares for too long.When she talks,he listens.He really does.He offers her rides,fixes things for her,but says,"It's nothing.I just thought you needed it."His touch is firm,but full of care—as if she were something precious.He goes silent when she gets too close, but his gaze gives it all away.✂️The barber shop “Costa & Navalha”
