R+Co Lead Educator Robert Vazquez Demonstrates “The Chop”

Supermodel Karlie Kloss made this cut famous when R+Co Co-Founder Garren cut her long bombshell locks to a short length just below the chin. Vogue named it “The Chop” and it sparked the long-bob trend, revived recently when Garren, again, cut and styled Kendall Jenner’s hair for Vogue’s coveted September Issue.

Robert Vazquez has worked with Garren for 13 years, gaining invaluable experience that has shaped his career as a hair stylist and educator. Vazquez wanted to create a “wash-and-go” style for his model, a new mom with an infant at home. He styled her cut with R+Co’s Sail Soft Wave Spray, spraying it all over her damp hair, then finishing with a rough blow dry – without a brush. He emphasizes that the right haircut, and using the right products, can drastically simplify your daily styling routine.

I love classes with Robert Vazquez because he works among the greatest hairdressers in the industry, yet he stresses the importance of mastering foundational techniques, and gives us permission to use them to create master looks.” -Stylist Carmella Williamson

Wella Color Top Artist + Trend Forecaster Alexandra Matiz Visits Samuel Cole Salon

Her expertise is behind the hair color of Cindy Crawford and Penelope Cruz, among other A-List celebrities.

Her involvement in Wella TrendVision competitions as a contestant, judge, and presenter inspires stylists to apply editorial techniques and styles to their daily hair coloring routines.

Alexandra Matiz’ expertise in Wella Color is incredible. As an artist, it was such a joy to learn color theory from a fellow artist – my mind was blown!” – Designer Alexis Lyons

Alley and Dempsey attended the renowned 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 cut and style their hair in such a way that compliments their curls. This hands-on styling and cutting course addressed the needs of every curl type. The stylists identified various curl patterns and applied Bb.U design techniques to create dynamic looks that complimented the client’s natural curls.

A lot of my clients like to embrace their natural curl, and I loved having the opportunity to see curly styling and cutting with a fresh perspective.” – Master Sylist Alley Biehl
