Editorial Styling Genius Dennis Lanni Leads Creative Workshop

Dennis Lanni grew up helping out in his father’s barbershop – sweeping the floor and breathing in the atmosphere and falling in love with the tools, sights and smells. This is where he first learned the importance of hair and how it made people feel.

Dennis Lanni’s passion is making hair sculptures out of everyday objects – he is inspired by wood and stones, and anything he finds while thrifting. His passion for originality drives his work in full-time styling on editorial photo shoots for celebrities and magazines – his work has been featured on the cover of several magazines including Rolling Stone, Fashion, Harper’s Bazaar, and Vogue. Notable celebrities he has styled include Jared Leto, Miley Cyrus, Amy Winehouse, Courtney Love and Zoey Deschanel. Ad Campaigns Dennis Lanni has styled include mega-brands such as Apple, Coca Cola, Nautica, French Connection, and Chloe.

His most recent work for New York Fashion Week featured Big 60’s Hair adorned with tiny white bows for Sandy Liang, and a variety of ringlets, bobs and mullets for Batsheva, including a fun blonde wig on actress-turned-model Christina Ricci. As much editorial experience as he’s had, Dennis Lanni is a well of innovative creativity that always produces fresh new ideas.

Dennis Lanni is such a smart, skilled stylist and I loved having a front row seat to his whimsical creative process. He literally goes in any direction he feels drawn to, I’m not entirely sure he knows what he’ll end up with before he begins and that’s what he loves about editorial hairstyling. It’s about doing what’s fun and looks cool or different that no one else has tried before.

Wella Color Top Artist Mark Debolt Debuted New Color Formulations in Master Class

*Director of Education Katie styles Mark Debolt’s Model*

Mark Debolt’s sixth visit to Samuel Cole Salon was just as notable and valuable as the previous five. A Top Artist for Wella Professionals, Mark Debolt specializes in color correction, foil highlighting, balayage and is a genius color formulator. He uses his craftsmanship to execute color imbued with rich tones and natural nuances.

In his Master Color Seminar, he shared his passion and trend forecasting. Hyper-natural color is going to set the tone for hair color trends in 2020. Think about how hair color looks on young children, so pure and soft. Trends are also showing that people are having more fun with their hair color, experimenting with their look and using hair color as a function of fashion.

Mark Debolt is one of the most humble, kind and brilliant educators. His seminars include stylists with a range of experience from 2 years to 30 years, and every single person is engaged and inspired. The biggest takeaway from him is always, the client comes first. As a hair stylist, it’s not about “you,” it’s about making the client look and feel like the best version of themselves!”

Designers Fallyn, Kait and Carmella Visit the House of Bumble

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
