It all started when…

A global pandemic happened. Education took a back seat while salons, stylists, and owners patiently waited to reopen their doors. The hope that business will resume like before, staff would stay safe, and loyal clients will return.

Now as we work within the new normal, we can begin to focus on the skills and technique to elevate our craft. A chance for education and inspiration to recharge stylists and teams that have worked through the worst of times.

Created to customize each class in a safe environment, æffect education can adapt to suit the attendees. Whether it be a digital format with each attendee working from home or together in their space, or hands on within a salon while maintaining social distancing and PPE.

Haircuts with distinctive techniques, color theory and efficacy in placement, wearable up-styling made simple, and unique marketing classes all designed to encourage stylist to think outside the traditional routes when working, but resulting in looks that are usable every day behind the chair.
