He is a famous coiffeur of celebrities of the caliber of Grace Jones, Calvin Klein and Kristine, who also did hair Michael Jackson (reveals that he stole some black Gucci glasses) now Britney Spears (She claims that she peeled because she couldn’t get her extensions out, not because she was “crazy”). Roberto Novo, Argentine hairdresser who started with Michael Romano combing Graciela Borgesphilanthropist benefactor and photographer, has lived in New York and Paris for years and is in Buenos Aires exhibiting the exhibition of photographs of his dog Machitwothe first cloned French bulldog dog from New York.

New He made the decision to preserve his dog’s DNA and after his death cloned Machito. Finally, after many attempts, the Machitwo clone was born. The living room New It was just a few doors away from the famous Stonewall club, where the 1969 Stonewall riots changed the face of gay liberation in the U.S. Novo and Machito were magnets for tourists and locals alike. They both raised funds for animal welfare causes and for more than three decades, New offers companionship and hair styling to isolated elderly people, palliative care patients and various charity beneficiaries.
In 1999, Novo launched “Haircut for Life,” a monthly benefit event on Fire Island and at her 8th Avenue salon to raise funds for HIV research and support the St. Vincent’s Hospital AIDS Foundation. We talk with New.
Journalist: How was your jump from Castelar to New York?
Roberto Novo: Miguelito Romano was looking for a hairdresser for Graciela Borges when he was recording the novel with Carlos Monzón, “Fight for Life,” and I took the test even though he didn’t have faith in me. I did my hairstyle and cut jumping from one hand to the other. Miguel was attracted to the fact that she did her hair with two hands. I was there when Graciela found her boyfriend, the architect, cheating on her. I took her home and slept with her. “You’re going to need me like I’m going to need you, so we better get along,” the star, Graciela Borges, told me.
Q: But you went to Europe.
RN: Miguel Romano had hired me but when we had vacations they offered me a job in Paris, there I was a hairstylist for Moschino, my cuts spoke for me, they are like sculptures. Then I came to New York and worked with Grace Jones, Derek, and then came the 2001 MTV Music Awards, the year Britney came out dressed in a yellow snake. I was there and it was funny because Michael Jackson had lost his black glasses, so I lent him mine, beautiful Gucci ones that he never gave me back.
Q: What impression did Michael Jackson give you?
RN: Very good and sweet, I never believed he would have done what they say, I blame the parents for leaving their minor children with an adult even if he is famous. To me Michael seemed sincere, childish, we lost a great value, he was a genius.

Q: And what can you say about Britney?
RN: They had put extensions on her that I hated, because they glued her hair with wax and couldn’t be removed. I wanted to travel to California to remove them one by one, it was an attack of desperation, no one could remove them, I grabbed the machine and it peeled. Then they invented that she was crazy but she couldn’t get the extensions out.
Q: What are the comics with the adventures that you and your dog have to offer?
RN: I made some graphics and the Louvre liked the photographs and the book. It is the first time that a dog enters the Louvre. My story with him was strange, I went to buy a coffee and ended up with a dog. I didn’t kidnap it but I didn’t return it, I paid $3000 for it and it captivated my clients. It inspired me to write a 200 page novel, that dog and I had a very interesting life. I went to hospitals, I took him and people hugged him, there is incredible love. When he passed away I felt like I lost my partner and I wanted to have him back that’s why I managed to clone him. All the charity I do fills me up so I can behave a little badly.
Q: What about your native Buenos Aires in your book?
RN: My uncle Gerardo owned the “El Estudiante” bookstore in Bartalomé Mitre. As a child I grew up with books with my cousins. I always liked books even though I didn’t have the patience to read. It is a miracle to have written this 200-page book. It is a human and New York story, with Argentina and Paris in the middle, also Rome and Brazil.
