The Brunette Edit

6-Hour Practical Education Session

This is for anyone not yet confident with highlighting blondes.
This is a confidence-building, fundamental colour class designed to help apprentices refine their highlighting and deliver consistent, salon-friendly results every time.

This class is all about breaking down purposeful placement, how to get the perfect hairline and seamless results every time.

The endless blonding techniques we see online are great but it all falls apart if we can't highlight to the scalp, understand placement and have thorough colour theory knowledge.

This class is the gap missing in education for newly qualified or apprentices who are still grounding those fundamentals before the advanced colour classes.

Hosted in my hair home, Have A Nice Day Hair, in the heart of St Kilda.
