I was recently teaching a class at the Marvel Beauty School in London, Canada. It is Canada’s largest chain of hairstyling and esthetics schools with 22 campuses across the country.

I was so excited to be amongst so many cosmetology students. It was overwhelming to receive their positive response as you’ll find out in the video clip below.

I thoroughly enjoyed teaching at the Marvel Beauty School. Thanks to them for inviting me and thanks to the students for listening to me!

Snip Snip!

Antonio Quintieri from Shyne Salon, Canada was declared the winner of People’s Choice Award during International TrendVision Award 2011.

Antonio is an award winning Canadian hairstylist who had recently won North America Trend Vision 2011 in the Color category and hence he got a chance to represent Canada at the international level.

This year, Wella introduced the People’s Choice Award where the online audience was asked to vote for their favorite hairdressers. It was a unique thing which encouraged those with a passion for hair to watch the show live and make their support and votes count!

Antonio Quintieri won the inaugural People’s Choice Award as he amassed maximum number of votes from the online audience. Congrats Antonio!

Last year, Antonio was featured on ScissorBoy TV where he gave an AMAZING, super detailed and thorough explanation for a long hair cut including some very cool cutting techniques.

The layering techniques that he demonstrated are multi-purpose for the clients as well as stylists. Since these techniques work well for everyone, they can be easily customized to set up a new look either by styling hair or by simply tying them in a ponytail.

Check out the preview of that video below.
