  • Kogi Naturals

    A few years ago a started suffering from dandruff, so I started using various chemical based dandruff control shampoos. They helped a bit, but never really completely eliminated the problem.

  • Black Beauty

    I’m loving the beautiful black aesthetic of Gum Salon located in Milan’s stylish Ticanese area.  They’ve used quite a few traditional elements but have created a really modern feel through the monochromatic colour scheme.  The black tile, painted brick and Hollywood dressing room style lighting are all very simple but come together beautifully. Their logo […]
