MISUNDERSTOOD | Men 2023
Our men's collection for 2023 is called 'Misunderstood' and is an observation related to how people treat those who move around them either randomly and briefly or on a more systematic basis.
We hairdressers know very well the importance that external appearance has on the way others treat us both consciously and subconsciously. Appearance determines behaviors.
Observing the freedom with which the world expresses itself now - something that didn't exist before - and the fact that when you look a certain way you don't necessarily belong to a group of people, we realize that this has often led to wrong conclusions and bad attitudes. These behaviors lead to a strong reaction and this reaction – anger, rage, wariness – we wanted to express in our models.

MEDUSA | Women 2022
Our collection was inspired by the concept of Medusa both in ancient Greece and by the stingray of the sea. The common point we saw in the 2 concepts of Medusa is the central body of the figure from which emanate flexible limbs.
So, we wanted to transfer this silhouette to the world of hair by making more solid shapes combined with longer sections of hair that have movement.
We were inspired by the colors from the area of the bottom of the sea where, looking for jellyfish, we found some very impressive ones that appear in such colors in the water.

FLOATING | Women 2021
The inspiration comes from the movement of hair on female figures in water. Hair, whether long, semi-length, or short, follows the liquid element in its movement.
Using all lengths of hair, we styled them in such a way as to emphasize the movement to the side and up as well as the color.
The color inspiration came from the color and the various shades of the shell of the shells, at the bottom of the sea. Palettes of different colors that in each shell are related…

STREETWISE | Men 2021
In our men's collection 'Streetwise', we wanted to show how we deal with men's haircuts and in what style we work in everyday life with haircuts like those that can be found on the street.
We were inspired by the 70s. Movie images of stars of the time, such as that of Harvey Keitel in the movie Taxi Driver, Tom Selleck or Burt Reynolds, composed the style we wanted to convey. Road, vagrancy and everyday life were the elements we wanted to introduce into the photo shoot. This was rendered truer to general mood shots than portraits. We chose all hair lengths and gave them texture, because we think this is the look that dominates the street. Color was added to the hair, to reflect the men's tendency towards color, sometimes in a more intense form and other times in a more subtle and natural approach.

TWISTED SISTERS | Women 2020
Our 2020 Twisted Sisters collection is not a normal collection, just as this particular year was not normal.
Therefore, we have created a collection of non-studio photos that have as their theme beauty and femininity through highlighting curly hair.
We believe that curly hair and texture can be a source of immense inspiration and creativity, but at the same time add a lot to every woman's everyday style.
That's why this year we decided to present the Twisted Sisters collection, whose name can be translated in several ways!

KOKESHI | Women 2019
Our new photo gallery for 2019 was inspired by the primitive form of Japanese wooden dolls consisting of a cylindrical body and a spherical head. We combined these non-animated dolls with animated anime characters.

IXCHEL | Women 2018
Our inspiration comes from Mayan mythology, the way and geometry they used to make their hair. Geometry that left the forehead open or had short naïves and pieces of hair that went back with partial or more movement.
The goddess Ixchel, who in addition to being associated with midwifery and the medical care of women in the ancient Mayan culture, was also associated with the moon, which helped us imagine the shading of our photo shoot.
Added to all this is the styling of Mel Gibson's film 'Apocalypto' and the geometry of Die Antwoord singer Yolandi's hair.
The way we work in the salon was the other determining factor influencing the images we wanted to project.
Structure and texture, 2 characteristics that go together in all forms of haircuts. Colors softer but also more intense, styling more aggressive but also more romantic.

3 | Women 2017
Photo set '3' is inspired by the Triadisches Ballett developed by Oskar Schlemmer in the 1920s. This ballet was the most performed dance of all avant-garde artistic performances and was representative of the movement Bauhaus.
Our interpretation concerns 3 shapes, 3 colors, 3 experiential states. Triangle, Square, Circle - Yellow, Pink, Black – Joy, Celebration, Mystery.
The Simple is also Complex, that's why we chose in our photos to have a Dominant Element in each factor and a Residual.
