Here's how it works
Every salon owner wants a trained team. For many salons, this means the owner has to do all the heavy lifting – taking time away from their own chair to train the stylists, and bringing in expensive outside professionals once in a while. It’s hard, it’s inconsistent, and every minute away from the chair is lost revenue.
It’s the same for schools — an unending struggle with staff turnover and inconsistent messaging.
We can help. This is what we do. After a combined 60+ years of training with the best in the world, we’re building a web-based salon education system with two simple objectives:
- It brings you the absolute best training in the world
- It does all the hard work for you
Salons
The Superstar Educator facilitation program makes it easy to lead your staff into becoming a team, and to turn every client into a walking talking testimonial. Combined with the award winning Principle-Based Design and Finishing courses, this is the package that changes lives.
So let us be your education manager. We’ll do all the heavy lifting. That sounds nice, right?
Schools
Good help is hard to find. And while it is true that the Superstar Educator system makes sure your educators hit the floor with a consistent message, they will also bring with them expert facilitation techniques so that every student is engaged and inspired.
It comes with the Design Playbook, so your educators can get started right away.
Before you buy, contact us for incredible professional educator rates and support.
Stylists
You could learn another trendy haircut. And another. And another. Or you could never have to learn another haircut again because you know the Principles of Design and Finishing. Just by seeing it, you can recreate any hairstyle anytime. Even from a photo. Unlock your creativity. Control your career.
After this, all you need is practice.
