Colors with Chemistry

Our classes dive deep into both color theory and hair color chemistry in a simplified, visual way. We help hairdressers move beyond basics to build a strong foundation for confident formulation. You’ll learn real-world problem-solving and critical thinking so you can create predictable results without all the guesswork. Unlike brand-specific training, our education is product-neutral, we teach universal principles that work across all color lines. This ensures you gain versatile skills you can use in any salon setting, with any product line.

We’ve designed a pathway to meet you right where you are. To help you find the best place to start, you can take our quick 2-minute survey or our deeper 5-minute assessment (both linked on our page). These tools will guide you toward the class that fits your current experience and goals. Beginner-Friendly Classes: Perfect for stylists of all skill levels. Whether you’re brand new to color formulation or want to sharpen your skills, these courses build your confidence and give you a strong foundation. In-Depth Classes: Best for stylists with at least 1–2 years of experience who are ready to dive deeper into advanced formulation and critical thinking skills.

We cover everything from understanding the hair fiber and underlying pigments to advanced color theory, lift behavior, and troubleshooting common issues in formulation. You’ll learn how to: Use the color wheel as a tool Predict remaining pigment when lifting Bring color to your desired end result on purpose

All classes are delivered virtually with typically 2 in person classes per year. Beginner-friendly classes are pre-recorded, with instant access so you can learn at your own pace. In-depth classes are either fully live on Zoom, or hybrid, one day on demand and one day live on Zoom, giving you real-time interaction, feedback, and Q&A. Private salon sessions are also available, scheduled directly with your team. Please reach out to us via email if you're interested in learning about our options: [email protected]

Each enrollment is for single-user access only (both live and on-demand). Our education is not licensed for redistribution or for use as a salon training program. If more than one stylist will be learning, each must have their own enrollment. If you’d like your team to learn together, we offer private salon classes where multiple stylists can be trained directly by our team. We also have group options available for our beginner-friendly on-demand classes.
