THINK PINK
The iconic page-boy cut from the '60s gets a radical makeover thanks to Hasse Kliem and Therese Manscher, head honchos at MoreTeaSir, a hip hair establishment in Copenhagen, Denmark. What's different? The duo used vibrant pink and orange hues on cool blond hair to accentuate the contrasts between the different lengths. The look is captured on a Stylelabs DVD collection. stylelabs.dk —K.D.

Rock On, Redken
Icons of the American Marketplace: Consumer Brand Excellence (American Benchmark Press, 2007) profiles America's best-known and most beloved brands, from Converse to Colgate, Woolite to Whirlpool. Brands that have captured the hearts and minds of American consumers were chosen for a variety of reasons, like distinctive packaging or unforgettable ads. Redken was the only haircare company that made the cut. We think that's pretty darn impressive. —M.D.
