Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Klivian Hebach. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Klivian, we’re so excited for our community to get to know you and learn from your journey and the wisdom you’ve acquired over time. Let’s kick things off with a discussion on self-confidence and self-esteem. How did you develop yours?
I was my first client. Through self-knowledge, I learned to understand myself, my essence, and how to express that authentically through my personal image. My profession played a key role in this process because, before guiding others, I had to experience this transformation myself.
By discovering what truly represents me—my style, my colors, my body-type, face shape and how I want to be perceived—I built the confidence to communicate this clearly to others. This journey of self-awareness not only shaped my personal image but also strengthened my ability to help my clients do the same.
Understanding myself first allowed me to refine my expertise, making my work more than just about appearance. It’s about authenticity, alignment, and purpose. My confidence and self-esteem grew as I learned the power of personal image, and today, I use this knowledge to empower others on their own journeys.
Appreciate the insights and wisdom. Before we dig deeper and ask you about the skills that matter and more, maybe you can tell our readers about yourself?
I am a personal image consultant and stylist, and my purpose is transformation—not just in appearance, but in self-perception and confidence. I believe that true style starts with self-knowledge. When my clients understand who they are, what makes them unique, and how to express that through their personal image, they gain a level of confidence that goes far beyond fashion.
The consultancy process consists of several stages: an initial interview, followed by color analysis, biotype analysis, face shape evaluation, style diagnosis, closet cleaning, personal shopping, and the creation of a look book.
What excites me the most about my work is guiding people through this journey of self-discovery. My approach isn’t about following trends—it’s about helping each client find their own voice through style. When they see themselves in a new way, when they recognize their power and authenticity, that’s when real transformation happens and that’s when they tell there own story throw there imagem. I help my clients make intentional choices that align with who they are and how they want to be perceived, whether through clothing, colors, or overall styling. Seeing them gain confidence and feel empowered through this process is what makes my work so special.
Right now, I’m focused on expanding my reach by offering both in-person and online services to clients worldwide. In addition, I’m excited to introduce eBooks and online classes to my offerings, making it easier for more people to access the tools and knowledge they need to build their personal style with confidence. My work is about empowerment, and I ensure that every client not only looks better but also truly knows and owns their unique presence.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
Looking back, three key qualities have been the most impactful in my journey: self-awareness, individuality, and expertise in personal image.
Self-awareness – Before helping others, I had to understand myself. Learning about my best colors, body type, face shape, and personal style was essential in building my own image with confidence. This deep knowledge allowed me to communicate who I am authentically. My advice for those starting their journey is to invest in self-discovery. Understanding these elements about yourself not only enhances your personal image but also strengthens what you communicate to others.
Individuality – Every client is different, and being able to adjust my approach based on their unique essence has been my differential. Trends change, styles evolve, and each person has their own story. For those beginning their journey, my advice is to respect and embrace the uniqueness of each individual. The key to success is not imposing a standard formula but understanding what works for each person and helping them express their best version authentically.
Expertise in Personal Image – Mastering the technical aspects of my work, from color theory to body shapes and styling, has been essential. For those looking to develop in this area, continuous education is key. Take courses, practice, and stay curious—knowledge is what builds credibility and long-term success.
At the end of the day, growth is a continuous process, and every challenge brings a new opportunity to refine, evolve, and make a lasting impact.
Alright so to wrap up, who deserves credit for helping you overcome challenges or build some of the essential skills you’ve needed?
There are things in life that only you can do for yourself, and I’ve learned to be the one who most helps me. My journey has been a process of constant self-care, self-discovery and growth, and I am the one who has driven this transformation.
I am Brazilian, but I was raised in New York, a city that exposed me to diversity and different cultures. At 10, I moved to Brazil, experiencing a completely different lifestyle. This transition taught me resilience and adaptability—two qualities that would later become essential in my career.
I went to law school, believing it was the right path, but I never truly felt connected to that profession. It wasn’t until I discovered image consulting that everything started to make sense int my life. At that time I also moved back to NYC, my favorite city in the world. I finally found a career that allowed me to combine my passion for human connection and personal transformation. I am incredibly happy doing what I love—helping people feel confident and express their best selves through self-discovery.
What most helps me develop the essential skills, qualities, or knowledge for success is my global perspective and humanized approach to consulting. Having lived in different countries, traveled extensively, and immersed myself in various cultures, makes me understand how fashion, style, and self-expression vary around the world. This allows me to bring a unique approach to my work, tailoring my expertise to each individual’s lifestyle, culture, and personal needs. More than just giving recommendations, I prioritize truly understanding my clients—their desires, insecurities, and aspirations—so they feel seen, heard, and empowered throughout the process.
Right now, I’m writing this from Europe, where I’m on a three-month tour, exploring different fashion scenes, deepening my knowledge, and further expanding my perspective. Every experience, every place, and every interaction enriches the way I help my clients—ensuring that my work isn’t just about fashion but about real transformation.
