TONI&GUY International Artistic Director and Head of Education"What’s unique about TONI&GUY education is that our Artistic Team whose sole focus and passion is hairdressing education teaches all courses. All of our educators go through years of training and rigorous training to ensure that a highly skilled professional is teaching you. We are a salon-based company, so despite our obvious links with fashion we know how to make it relevant to you and your salon. We are constantly updating and redefining our course offering and teach hairdressers of every level, from the absolute beginner to advanced hairdressing skills like Avant Garde and Session hair. Our central London flagship Academy is a hub of creativity and we invite you to join us to share in our passion and experience."
Artistic Team
The multi award-winning TONI&GUY Artistic Team is made up of some of the best hairdressers in the business. They are also considered to be one of the driving forces behind the global success of TONI&GUY, essensuals and label.m. As a group of people who are extremely diverse, the company is proud to employ artists of every conceivable talent: from pioneering new cutting and colouring techniques to creating editorial and Avant Garde styles. They share their vision and knowledge with 100,000 hairdressers globally at shows and seminars each year. In addition, they split time between teaching at TONI&GUY academies around the world, creating the hair for editorial photoshoots and providing expert advice and guidance to the trade and consumer press. On top of all of that, each year they bring TONI&GUY’s innovative hairdressing techniques to key fashion events including London Fashion Week, London Fashion Week Men’s and London Fashion Week Festival.
