EMMAs Skönhet

Emma Wiklund has been a regular to us at MIKAs Koivisto/Karlsson from the beginning in 2007 and is always a pleasure to have to work with either with colouring, cutting, styling or putting in extensions.

Have a look in her new book "EMMAs skönhet" for tips and ideas - and shortcuts - to a better appearance. And you will see both Teemu Koivisto and Jenny Karlsson mentioned in the "hair" chapter.

Autumn/Winter Trends

For this autumn/winter we have sought after our inspiration from two different eras that always seem to come back - short hairstyles both with a hint of the 70's and the 90's and classic bobs - not too long, not too short. Colour that either goes a warmer terracotta and mahogany brown or that deep, cold and crispy Swedish blonde.

The 70's look should have a feeling of Andy Warhols Factory Girl - Edie Sedwick or something towards Vidal Sassoons classic haircut the Wedge. The same kind of cheekiness we get from Edie Sedwick we turn up a notch and use 90's supermodel Stella Tennant who has been re-accuring on the runways and in ad-campaigns over the last year with her androgynous looks.

For the classic bob cut with not too short, not too long lengths - danish model Freja Beha Erichsen is rocking it like a star! A length not above shoulders or beneath your collar bones with a wavy texture.

For gents hair the last year or two has been barbered and groomed rockabilly style. Let it grow, style it forward, texture it and let it look more and more towards a messier mods hair but not necessarily with the super short fringe.
