FOR LONGER HAIR:

FOR LONGER HAIR:

Various techniques were applied to mirror Rolf Ekroth’s craftsmanship and overarching theme.
Braiding and twisting methods were used away from and flat to the scalp, forming plaited ponytails
that were intricate, detailed, and practical—a reflection of the bead weaving and handcrafted
elements present in the collection. The hair was also parted in a Zigzag and ‘E’ design, a nod to
Ekroth’s signature cuts and patterns. A swept fringe symbolized the wet and windy conditions of
Nordic winters, while a bun with a fanned effect paid tribute to the sun worshippers depicted in the show.

For these styles, ELEVEN Australia I WANT BODY VOLUME FOAM was applied from roots to ends
for structure and hold. Depending on the variation, SLICK HOLD STYLING POMADE provided definition
and control, SMOOTH & SHINE ANTI-FRIZZ SERUM and MAKE ME SHINE SPRAY GLOSS delivered shine
and a wet-look effect, while GIVE ME HOLD FLEXIBLE HAIRSPRAY ensured lasting hold.

texture. Natural curl patterns were defined using ELEVEN Australia KEEP MY CURL DEFINING CREAM, while I WANT
