Fiji lost one of her most renowned hairdressers in Ratu Kiniviliame Koroi last week. When you talk about Fijian icons, Kini, as he was fondly known, was larger than life.
This writer had the opportunity to speak with him just before he passed away. His story is an inspiration to us all.
Kini’s love affair with hair began way back in the 1970s.
And if you ask anyone who was in sync with the fashion and beauty trends back then, they would probably remember Kini because of his skill and also because of his personality.
