Senior Designers Libby + Morgan Attend Celebrity Styling Academy Nine Zero One

901 Senior Stylist + 901 Academy Educator
Tauni Dawson

Located in the heart of Los Angeles, trendsetting Nine Zero One Salon is the salon-home for dozens of celebrities and prides itself on creating “The Best You” and sharing their professional expertise in their prestigious 901 Academy.  Nine Zero One’s clientele includes Heidi Klum, Eva Longoria, Charlize Theron, Selena Gomez, Sarah Hyland, Justin Bieber, Julianne Hough, and Ashley Graham.

Stylists Libby + Morgan went to their Break It Up Tone It Down color class, which focused on creating richness in color, controlling warm tones, and color blending.  Their educator Tauni Dawson began her styling career assisting Riawna Capri to Hollywood clientele, on-location photoshoots and high-profile weddings.

I loved the focus on color placement because it demonstrated ways we can “work smarter, not harder” to achieve these gorgeous looks without an hours-long appointment.”

Designers Fallyn, Kait and Carmella Visit the House of Bumble

Carmella’s Model

Samuel Cole Salon sent Designers Fallyn, Kait and Carmella to Bumble and bumble University in NYC, an iconic nationwide school of hair design, for a cutting workshop where they furthered their foundational razor cutting skills. Bumble & bumble’s school provides creative freedom and one-on-one instruction from top industry educators. The class expands stylists’ knowledge of Cutting Theory, Advanced Consultation Skills, and Bumble and bumble products in addition to refining their razor cutting skills. 

Instructors demonstrated techniques and facilitated a hands-on workshop in which Fallyn, Kait and Carmella created a long layered haircut and the timeless bob haircut on their models. This class is instrumental in further mastering the art of razor cutting.

I loved having complete artistic freedom to expand my razor skills in a setting that had the guidance of top industry instructors nearby.” – Stylist Fallyn Mireault

R+Co Cutting Guru and Global Educator Douglas McCoy Visits Samuel Cole Salon

Douglas McCoy is an expert hairstylist, specializing in cutting. He is very accomplished, both behind the chair and behind the camera lens. He has worked six seasons of New York Fashion Week, with Houses such as BCBG, Lacoste and Rebecca Minkoff. He is a two-time winner of the Hairbrained Video Awards Lo-Fi Video of the Year and Best Over-All Video of the Year.

When Howard McLaren founded R+Co with Garren and Thom Priano, other industry legends, he asked Douglas McCoy to be on R+Co’s education team before they had developed a single product. The vision they shared was enough for Douglas to know he wanted to be a part of it. As he put it, “R+Co is real life, it’s a hairdresser’s dream.”

I loved hearing Douglas McCoy’s first-hand experience working with Howard McLaren because that’s where he learned how to make every appointment a better experience for his clients. We’re always trying to improve the salon experience for our guests so it was a perfect class to lead into our busy holiday season.
