Originally from Bosnia and Herzegovina, PJ began honing his craft at just 14 years old. Now the owner of Sports Barbers, he is an expert in modern men’s styling. In this class, he will teach foundational techniques for a clean, modern look, starting with a classic fade and sharing his insider tips and tricks for a flawless blowout taper. Courtenay Girard has been cutting hair for 20 years, teaching and mentoring for 10 years. She is a co owner of Foundation Hair Salon and Academy. She will be teaching a 90’s inspired haircut featuring defined face framing and a long curtain fringe. Aligned with current salon trends but grounded in classic haircutting theory, this technique can be adapted to suit various lengths and hair textures. Performed on dry hair and finished with a bouncy style, there is also a strong focus on precision and efficiency throughout. Rayne Lyall is a barber specializing in hair designs with over 12 years of passion and experience in the art of creative cutting. Inspired by getting designs in her own hair, she developed a love for the versatility of design work — from clean part lines to intricate lotus patterns and fun character designs. Known for her artistic approach, Rayne is passionate about helping others build creativity and confidence in hair design. Maurice St Rose is an award-winning barber with over a decade of experience, recognized for his sharp fades, precision cuts, and premium service. He has earned 13 awards and is known for his signature 5-3-1 fade technique, which he teaches step by step to help barbers achieve flawless results efficiently. His training also covers freehand techniques for maintaining shape and blend across different hairstyles, as well as seamless beard blending tailored to each client’s face.
