Margarita Lozano was born in Tetuán, at that time known as Spanish protectorate of Morocco. Lozano spent her childhood in Lorca (Murcia), where she later returned to establish her residence. She lived in multiple countries such as Germany, Madagascar, Italy, Senegal, and Africa. Lozano claimed that the only reason she left Africa was because her mother became ill and she had to care for her. Her mother would tell her that when she was about age four, Lozano would go behind curtains and say 'The actress is coming out' and in an interview she says that she was born an actress.
