My passion for education came from my personal introduction into the industry. I felt that a lot of things were lacking and felt unfulfilled. As I started taking more classes and meeting more stylists, I began to feel supported and educated. I educate because while I love being able to spread my knowledge on the technical side of the industry and offer support to other stylists who might feel the way I did when I was starting out. I want to provide the things I was missing and be the person I needed back then.

My technical skill color classes are full of business, social media, and photography info, as well as a Q + A conversation throughout the entire day to answer any and all important questions, in or out of the salon. 

I believe in transparency and support among hairstylists 

"The class was amazing! It was very thorough and educational. I loved that you allowed stylists to try the techniques. The workbook is so detailed and really educational. This would be a perfect class for people to take that are just learning vivids. I have been doing them for a while but I learned little tips and tricks. Most importantly, it made me more inspired to do more!"

"Loved the class!! Allison was so detailed & very thorough! She made sure she was getting across to everyone & is so personable. She really simplified everything that I commonly over complicate. Can't wait to try out the techniques she showed us & see all the amazing outcomes that come along with it!"

"The class was outstanding!! It was very organized and educational. The booklet we received was thorough and is something ill definitely look back on in the future. Allison also gave some awesome tips and tricks when it comes to instagram and pictures which was very helpful!
This class was great for anyone who is a student and someone who's been doing hair for years!"

“I was so lucky to learn so much from such a humble, honest, and open teacher. Her positivity and helpful tips throughout really made the class informative and fun. Allison is genuine and really wants to support other stylist in a way that is inspiring and positive.”
