Minna
Junior StylistI’m from Helsinki. My interest in the beauty industry arose at a young age, and after comprehensive school I studied to be a beautician. However, I felt a burning passion for hair, and after a few years of styling my own and friends’ hair, I applied to Unika, where I graduated as a hairdresser.
I’m inspired by country and rock stars from the 60s and 70s, as well as movies, the people around me and the amazing work of other hairdressers, both in the store and on social media.
I enjoy being around people, and as a hairdresser you meet different amazing people every day. It’s cool to get to do creative work and see not only your personal touch in the work, but also the customer’s joy with their new hair.
Minna serves customers in Finnish and English.

Sedin
Art Director – Photographer – FilmmakerI live in Helsinki. As a young boy I was always doing everyone’s hair and it was natural for me to start studying it. Later I also studied photography and now I’m doing that along with working as a hair stylist. I’m combining my two passions photography and being a hairstylist and I photograph a lot of marketing materials for Q Hair, too.
I get inspiration from all around me and I follow the industry and I’m interested in knowing what’s happening there.
I love doing every kind of works. Specially I like interacting with the customers and giving them joy and new style.
Kaisa
Senior StylistI am a customer-oriented and easy-going young woman from Rovaniemi. In all its simplicity, I decided to start studying to become a hair stylist. I studied and found a way I like to express myself. From that moment on, I have been diligently trained and found my own way of doing and implementing things.
I am inspired by everything I see and experience, but I find the most inspiration from each of my clients.
I’ve always been fascinated by what the layout and small shade differences can do for the entity and how to get a tailor-made brilliant result. That’s where my little perfectionist comes up. True natural and soft colours or really light end results are my thing. Especially the different lightening techniques and using them is my strength.
Santeri
StylistI’m from Kouvola and being a hairstylist has been my dream profession since I was a child.
I seek inspiration from colleagues, social media, street fashion and every customer as a person.
Most of all, I like the variability, customer contacts and the fact that my work is immediately visible. By improving the customer’s look, I get them happy and it also brings joy to me.
Inka
Style Director – Make Up Artist – Salon ManagerI was born in Kouvola. I knew already in secondary school that I wanted to be a hairstylist. After elementary school, I went to a hairstyling school and then to a private makeup school. I have been able to realize my dream for twenty years now.
Since this industry is always living in a new period of transition, I like to train myself regularly. Vidal Sassoon, Toni&Guy, KC Professional and Wella to name a few. I can always find something new on Instagram and Youtube. I also get a lot inspiration for something new from my colleagues.
I get the most energy from the versatility of this work. All experiences with my customers are always different. I especially like the variability of cutting and colouring techniques. Working with customers itself is really rewarding.
