Education is an investment you’ll never lose. As a hairstylist, it’s a skill that grows alongside your career and is honed each day in the salon, with every conversation you have and in each class you take. While you can gain helpful tips from following your favourite brands or artists on social media, immersing yourself in a class adds to your skillset in profound ways. From learning the details of a technique you’ve tried to master over and over to asking the questions you didn’t know you needed the answer to – being in a classroom with like-minded artists gives you hands-on experiences that will reignite your passion as a hair artist.

With this in mind, KEVIN.MURPHY has crafted our ACADEMY MASTER.CLASSES to ensure you get the most out of your education – be it cut, colour, or style.

“Advanced education is simply the best gift that you can give yourself, not to mention your clients! These ACADEMY MASTER.CLASSES will empower you with newfound skills and confidence. The classes are an immersion into learning and knowledge that will directly change your approach to how you cut, colour and style hair.” – Kevin Murphy

Set in inspiring locations, the ACADEMY MASTER.CLASSES are bringing together knowledge from around the world to give you the best in education. Learn more about which class is right for you.
