Hair Academy

Learn the Day practice

We're building a hairdressing academy in Bali, taught the way we work: the craft, and the hospitality around it. Put your name down and we'll message you the moment enrolment opens.

What we'd teach

One practice, taught properly

Every artist brings their own personality and creativity. What stays consistent is how we care. That shared practice is what an academy can actually pass on.

01

The consultation

Reading face shape, hair condition and how somebody actually wears their hair, before anything is mixed or cut.

02

The wash

Brushing before the wash, water quality, scalp work. The step most training skips and most guests remember.

03

Treatment and styling

Keratin, repair and color work in a climate that fights all three, and a finish the guest can repeat at home.

04

The hospitality

Why somebody comes back, and why they tell a friend. Reading a room, handling a guest who is unhappy, and the difference between finishing a service and looking after a person.

05

Knowing when to say no

What bleach, keratin and color actually do to a hair fibre, and how to tell a guest the honest answer. We don't sacrifice tomorrow's hair for today's transformation, and that is a skill, not a slogan.

06

The salon floor

Working clean, keeping to time, and moving between guests without either of them feeling rushed. The habits that decide whether a busy day feels calm or chaotic.

Who it's for

  • Assistants and juniors already in a salon, ready to move up to the chair
  • Stylists early on who never got a proper grounding
  • Working hairdressers adding treatment, keratin or color to what they offer
  • Barbers taking on longer hair and color work
  • Freelance and at-home stylists who want to work to a professional standard
  • People from hotels, villas and spas who already understand hospitality
  • Anyone changing career into the industry from scratch
  • Stylists coming back after a few years away
  • Salon owners and managers training a team to one standard

Straight answers

When does it start? We're not announcing a date yet. The waiting list is how you'll hear first.

What does it cost? Not set. We'll tell the list before anyone else.

Where? Bali.

Do I need experience? No. Tell us where you're starting from when you join the list, and we'll build the intake around it.

The other half

Craft gets you hired. Hospitality keeps you booked.

Most hair training stops at technique. But a guest who loved the cut and disliked the hour does not come back, and usually cannot tell you why. So half of this is the part nobody teaches.

Start with why

Before the how and the what. A stylist who understands why the salon works the way it does makes better calls when something goes off script, and doesn't need a manager standing behind them.

The hour, not the haircut

The greeting, the consultation, the wash, the silences, the handover at the end. Guests remember how the hour felt long after they stop noticing the cut.

Building a habit

Aftercare people actually follow, honest advice about what their hair needs next, and the reason somebody books again in six weeks instead of six months.

No commitment

Put your name down

Leave your details and we'll tell you the moment enrolment opens. Nothing before then.

It opens with everything we need already listed. Fill it in, send it, and we'll take it from there.

Meanwhile

Come and sit in the chair

The best way to know whether you want to train with us is to be treated by us first.
