Carlos López was born in the city of Durango in 1887. He made his debut as an actor in the northern theaters, where he became part of various companies before making his appearance in Mexico City in the main theater. The nickname "Chaflán" came from his long and narrow face, coupled with his peculiar mustache, which was false because he was hairless.
