Stylists Katie + Libby Attend Bumble & bumble Leadership Series in NYC

Libby’s Model

Members of Samuel Cole Salon’s Education Team, stylists Katie and Libby are instrumental in teaching several cutting, coloring and styling classes to Associates who go through our Immersion Program.  Committed to build leadership, technical and teaching skills, they attended Bumble and bumble University’s Network Educator Series at Bb.U in New York City.

Continuous education makes me a better stylist because I learn new ways to style my guests and how to teach my guests how to style their own hair, which is one of my favorite aspects of what I do.” – Stylist Katie Pursche

The three-day course included sessions on product ingredients, leadership, presentation skills and hands-on styling.  Educators demonstrated  techniques that Bumble and bumble’s Global Artistic Director Laurent Philippon used to style runway models for Lacoste at New York Fashion Week.  Katie and Libby loved these techniques, as they applied them in a hands-on session with live models.

It was exciting to see a new twist on styling curls.  The technique created a loose flat wave, which a lot of our guests are really into right now.” – Stylist Libby Bink

Master Stylist Nikki Kepley Announces New Boutique Hours

Nikki Press ReleaseNikki + Nollie2Q: Tell us about your new life… How’s motherhood?
A: Oh goodness! Motherhood is crazy. All the emotions! It’s been the biggest, most consuming and confusing, rewarding and exhausting blessing I’ve ever experienced. Helping another human grow up is a fascinating experience.

Q: So you’re back to work, how’s that transition been?
A: It is actually wonderful!  You know, leaving your sweet little baby at home sounds heart breaking but I am passionate about my career as a hairstylist.  I love returning to the creativity and the inspiration that I experience on a daily basis.

Nikki PicQ: Now that you’re back into the swing of things, what trends are catching your eye?
A: Lately I’ve been seeing a lot of natural enhancements, which I am totally digging. I love the concept of taking what God gave you and making it amazing – Keeping color rooty but sun kissed in all the right places. I’ve been drawn to utilizing my razor to create natural movement and texture,  I love creating lived-in wearable signature looks for my clients.

Q: We’ve noticed you have new boutique hours. When can people come see you?
A: I do! I am so fortunate to have a new schedule that lets me share my two passions, hairdressing and baby Nollie. I am in the salon Monday through Wednesday and look  forward to seeing long time clients along with new folks in the future!

Stylists Katie and Libby Attend Master Razor Techniques at Bb.U

Bb.U razor cut

Razor bob by Katie

Samuel Cole stylists Katie Hu and Libby Bink attended a hair cutting and styling class at the highly regarded Bumble & Bumble University, Bb.U, in the Meatpacking District of New York City.

The class aimed to define the stylist’s individual career journey by perfecting foundation and classic techniques, so the stylist has a versatile skill that allows for a greater range of specialties.

Razors are versatile and can be used in long haircuts to remove weight without removing length, and in short bobs to provide a light and airy texture to the ends.  The knowledge and use of exclusive Bumble and Bumble products enhanced the cut with a custom look to match the model’s natural features and lifestyle.

The small class environment allowed us to expand our comfort zone and skill set with the razor.  The razor really allows the stylist to customize each cut to the client’s specific hair type and style. – Libby Bink

The World of Curls at Bb.U

Stylist Veronique's model before and after

Stylist Véronique attended the new Bb.U Curl Class at Bumble and bumble University in New York City.   Curly hair comes in a variety of shapes and sizes, from spiral corkscrews to loose waves, and many curly-hair clients spend a lifetime looking for a stylist who can use tools and products to compliment their curls.  This hands-on course addressed the needs of every curl type on the texture spectrum, expanding hairdressers’ knowledge of cutting and styling all curly hair textures. The students identified various curl patterns and applied Bb.U design techniques to create dynamic looks that complimented the client’s natural curls.

Veronique had the pleasure of learning how to conduct an effective curl consultation while analyzing curl types and patterns. Understanding the behavior of various curl patterns is critical to cutting and styling curly hair because each person has up to three different curl patterns that must be cut and styled uniquely.  Some curls require weight removal, while others crave definition.

“This class gave me the confidence to suggest changes in my clients’ morning routine so they can enhance their natural curls every day.” –Véronique Breault
