Become your own fantasy: Hairstyle Workshop – Q***r Bridges ✨
Hair can be expression, play, identity, and transformation. This workshop invites q***r migrants to experiment with hairstyles, discover new techniques, and create looks that feel true to them – whether for everyday life, gender euphoria, or building a drag persona.

🛎️ LGBTQIA+ Migrants

Together we will explore hairstyling as a creative tool for self-expression and gender affirmation. Participants are encouraged to bring a visual reference (such as drawings or photos), a mirror, and any questions they may have. In a supportive and playful atmosphere, we will share techniques, experiment with different looks, and learn from one another.
🔥 Led by Lau, a multidisciplinary non-binary artist working primarily as a hair and make-up artist for theatre, film, fashion, and advertising. Closely connected to Berlin's q***r community, Lau is a former drag performer and club kid. They facilitate gender-affirming hair and make-up workshops for q***r and TIN groups, including at König and for Gender Studies students at Stockholm University.
✨ This workshop is for LGBTQIA+ people with migration and/or displacement experiences. If you do not share these experiences but would like to attend, please contact us first to check availability. We ask all participants to respect the program's focus and contribute to an open, respectful space.
🌟 With the support of the Deutschen Fernsehlotterie Stiftung, we have developed the Q***r Bridges program to overcome common barriers for individuals with experiences of migration and/or displacement. We provide resources, networking and support in a welcoming environment for q***r immigrants and refugees. Our goal is to foster a sense of belonging to the local LGBTQIA+ community, enabling smooth integration and an improved quality of life.
