June 3-5, 2013 (RALEIGH, NC) – Samuel Cole Salon stylists and Network Educators, Sara Beard and Jenny Smith, returned to Bumble & bumble University in New York City to attend Network Educator II Workshop.  According to Bumble, the Network Educator School “trains top talent in our Network salons to help inspire creativity, superlative customer service, and client education.  Hairdressers at the height of their careers can translate their dedication, passion, and expertise to their fellow stylists.”    After graduating as Network Educators from Network Educator I Workshop, Beard and Smith have been extensively involved in all salon educational events at Samuel Cole Salon.  They also teach orientation and core education classes for all new stylists.  The intense four day Network Educator II curriculum enhanced their basic educator skill set to grow them to the next level of confident and intuitive educators.

“There is no better source of inspiration for a hairdresser and educator than coming to Bumble and bumble,” said Beard.

“It has been an amazing privilege to work with such a talented group of educators who are full of knowledge and passion. Being part of the Bumble and bumble network opens a giant door of continuing future possibilities that I am eagerly awaiting. Until then, I leave this session inspired and humbled by the amazing talent I always encounter at the house of Bumble,” said Smith.

Samuel Cole Salon is owned by the husband and wife team and veteran stylists, Jack and Joelle Ray.  “We are thrilled that Sara and Jenny are continuing their NE training.  They are taking advantage of a phenomenal opportunity to train with the very best in the industry.  We could not be prouder of them.  In addition to their already rigorous schedules, they put in many extra hours preparing and teaching classes for our teams in which they utilize their skills gained from their education at Bumble’s NE courses”, said Joelle who also serves in the role of Director of Education for the salon.
