This one day workshop is for the progressively minded hairdresser who wants to push their cutting from traditional to advanced techniques and finish the look with contemporary styling. If you are daunted by disconnected cutting and intuitive texturing then this day is for you.

Inspired by his BULLET PROOF trend collection, Dario Cotroneo covers 3 cuts using innovative cutting techniques and adaptive styling tricks for face shapes. Hands-on tuition from Dario will give you the inspiration and confidence to take new looks and techniques back to your salon and staff.

You will workshop the techniques for each look on your own mannequin head in a small group with one-on-one tuition. Lunch, refreshments and a premium mannequin head are included. The mannequin is yours to take back to your salon to demonstrate to your own team.
