Mark DeBolt visits Samuel Cole for a Master Color Class

Samuel Cole Stylists cannot say enough great things about Mark DeBolt! He is a regular on our Master Color Education Calendar! We are always so thrilled to have him in our salon teaching us all the new and different trends for color.

At the start of his career, Mark worked with celebrity stylist Marie Robinson. He later became a New York trusted colorist to icons such as Naomi Watts, Rebecca Taylor, and Vanessa Ferlito. Mark worked with Wella Professionals as a Brand Ambassador, Educator, and Color Expert for many years but has since embarked on a new journey being one of the proud owners of MarkRyan Salon in New York!

Many of our stylists say their favorite education class is Mark DeBolt Day! For his latest master color class, we dove deep into the challenges our industry has had since the Covid 19 pandemic and how to adapt with those changes. Our stylists watched as he did not one but two types of blonding models for us. The first was his take on the classic highlight. We talked sectioning, glaze formulations and root bumps! The result was one of effortless looking beauty! The second model was a look into Mark’s technique for the world of Balayage and Root Shadowing. He is always one to share the best color formulations from Shades EQ, to Koleston Perfect, and Color touch. They are always PERFECT! We can’t wait for Mark DeBolt Day in 2022!!

“Mark has such a calming and inspiring presence. I always learn something new whether it’s a formula, a technique, or just a way of thinking. He’s truly the Best!”

Wella Virtual Balayage Craft with Whitney Parr

Whitney Parr, a Wella Color Expert, Certified Stylist, and Educator recently shared her expertise in the art of Balayage. 2020 held lots of challenges for all businesses but Whitney did not allow it slow her down. This was our first virtual class of many in 2020 and it was FANTASTIC!

Our advanced stylists utilized mannequins to learn a new and current Balayage technique that focused on seamless blending. Whitney introduced halo sectioning and really challenged our stylists to take a different approach to hair painting. She encouraged them to paint down the hair strand, using their brush to only saturate the top layer. The results were absolutely beautiful!

“I loved this class! Using halo sections was so helpful in keeping me organized but also so time efficient!”

Wella Brazilian Illuminage with Wella Master Educator Stevie Smith

Stevie Smith discovered the art of hairdressing at the age of sixteen. She trained with top stylists in Atlanta for 9 years before moving to Chicago where she began working as a Stylist, Art Director, and Educator. She has worked with many of the industries leaders such as Wella, Toni & Guy, Bumble and Bumble, Vidal Sassoon, and ZGAT & Sharon Blain just to name a few.

Her Brazilian Illuminage Class focused on foil patterns and sectioning for maximum blonding impact. It’s a new take on balayage for those clients that want the light and bright without the maintenance. Our stylists worked in groups along side Stevie to personalize the technique to each individual models look. The results were so beautiful and we had so much fun getting there! We can’t wait to see what she brings us next!

“Stevie was amazing! She really helped me better understand sectioning to make blonde pop!”

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!”

Wella Color Artist Rian LaFleur Leads Advanced Color Correction Workshop

Color corrections are some of the most intense color appointments, and Rian LaFleur covered foundational techniques required to master the art of correcting a color issue. The class centered around the concept that there are four ways that color goes wrong. It’s either too light, too dark, too warm, or too cool. Focusing on these four color issues enables our stylists to always remain confident and in control when a color mishap walks through the door.

As a Wella Artist and Master Color Expert with 21 years of experience, Rian has a wealth of experience and expertise in the area of color corrections as well as fashion hairstyling. He has worked Fashion Weeks in Los Angeles and New York, and was named the Lead Stylist of Runway Houston.

“Rian emphasized the importance of protecting the integrity of our guests’ hair. He compared hair to fabric, saying “we want it to feel like silk, not burlap.” This really resonated with me because I’m always looking for new ways to explain to my guests that it can take more than one appointment to achieve the color they want in order to keep their hair healthy.”
