Compared to women of a metropolis such as New York, Norway has some heavy eyelashes batting to do, and make up brands to import, before the local femmes are styled and pampered to kill. But Norwegian women and desperate female tourists with lost luggage do no longer have to leave the country in order to get their beloved Canadian MAC mascara. This fall the shopping center Glassmagasinet in the very heart of Oslo started selling MAC articles.

Cosmopolitan [Greger Bergfeldt] observes that there are talented hair designers all over the world, but that hair isn't the same everywhere: For example, people in south Europe tend to have hair which is strong, thick and has some self curls; an Asian's hair is mostly stronger and thicker; Scandinavian hair has mostly thinner strands and no active texture or self curls in it, which means giving it active texture is the first goal.

Scandinavia,Japan, and Pennsylvania: What do the three places mean to you? Scandinavia - the land of the midnight sun; clean and pure, vast and spacious, tall green mountains full of Spruce, japan - where I was born; beautiful Zen temples and gardens, very spiritual. US/Pennsylvania - my home; a combination of all cultures, where I am most comfortable, where I work and create my art.
What happens during a typical day at your studio? I usually arrive to my studio at around 10:30 am (after answering e-mails). I like to work in the morning when the sun shines through my windows and doors. Often I am working on a piece for several days. I tidy up from the day before and continue working until the piece is finished. Days where I can start on a new idea are very exciting; I look to my wood sh...
