In the Spotlight with Paul Mitchell

Dated: June 18, 2008 2:10 PM
Over 1,000 stylists from London to Glasgow have taken part in a style adventure at Paul Mitchell's Spotlight Hair Camps.
Taking place at seven venues across the country, the Paul Mitchell Platform Artist Club (PAC) and Art Team put on inspiring workshops and demonstrations to update delegates' cutting techniques and expand their creative knowledge.
First, PAC took to the stage conducting 'hair-up' workshops to help stylists meet the increasing client demand for new ways to style their hair.
This was followed by demonstrative cuts from Angus Mitchell's Eclipse Collection including the 'Crystal' and 'Lyndsey'. Inspired by the luminous circular shape and eclipsing effect of the sun, the commercial viability of the cuts makes them easy for stylists to adapt in the salon.
Paul Mitchell® PAC member Carlo Cardinale said: "This year's Spotlight Hair Camps were a phenomenal series of events.
"The Paul Mitchell® PAC and Art Team had a great synergy that fused through to the delegates and created an electricl atmosphere."

Power Night with Tim Hartley: Carolyn Newman Reports
Posted by
Kate
Dated: May 23, 2008 11:57 AM
There aren't too many industries that let you see the best in the business in action and get the chance to learn from your idols.
But, thanks to organisations such as the Fellowship for British Hairdressing and the training courses organised by the leading product manufacturers, hairdressing breaks that mould.
Whether you are an assistant just starting out in the industry or an established hairdresser who never wants to stop learning, there is always plenty of benefits to attending such events.
Carolyn Newman, Colour & Art team Director at Charles Worthington, shares her experiences from The Fellowship for British Hairdressing Power Night with Tim Hartley.
"When I was hairdressing in Tasmania, I only dreamt of being able to see the best of British hairdressers not only on stage but up, close & personal.
"The wonderful thing about the Fellowship is that they give you this opportunity and last night was no exception watching Tim Hartley's Power night.
"With a packed out audience at the L'Oreal International Academy Tim had us all enthralled for the evening.
"His presentation opened with a beautiful black & white video depicting Tim's journey since leaving Sassoons, and showing his collections from the last two years
"Using a slide show, Tim talked us through his inspirations from: architecture, design and photography, explaining that hair is an art form and image and hair changes people's lives. He explained how form is function and how he then translates this into his haircuts.
"Tim then cut three models live on stage. Firstly depicting how to use length in a different way for long haircuts, then demonstrating graduation and texture and finally using combinations of cutting short hair with length.
"For me the keys points Tim demonstrated were how to expose your clients best features, especially the cheekbones, to work visually but precise and the use of strong simplistic colours in jet black, ruby red and shiny chestnuts.
"Tim presents in a relaxed, understated professional way and made us all feel at ease and invited questions from the audience, which there were many. The evening finished to a huge applause showing six models wearing his cuts and vision for the future, looking stylish and strong.
"Thanks again Tim for inspiring all of us - and to the Fellowship for providing these fabulous events."
