September 19 & 20, 2010 (RALEIGH, NC)
– Stylists from Samuel Cole Salon and Salon Moxie’s talented teams recently attended Bumble & bumble University located in New York City’s historic meat packing district.  Robyn Murphy, Whitney Heath, and Kristen Cotterill enhanced their skill set by studying with master hairdressers at Bumble in a rigorous two day course entitled Design Workshop.  These stylists engaged in comprehensive theory and hands-on training covering both razor and scissor techniques, as well as consultation skills and product knowledge.  They discovered new ways to hone their skills and expand their repertoire.

"I found my time at Bumble’s Design Workshop to be thoroughly inspirational.  I'm excited to bring the new razoring techniques taught for both short and long hair to Salon Moxie. It's absolutely amazing to be able to take what I've learned and give my clients a more modern look. I can't wait for my next visit to Bb U in New York," said Cotterill.

Samuel Cole Salon is one of Raleigh’s top salons and is owned by the husband and wife team and veteran stylists, Jack and Joelle Ray.  Continuing advanced education and inspiration are the Ray’s “Professional Edge” in this industry.  “We only hire stylists who are passionate about the craft of hairdressing and whose continuing education goals align with ours,” explains Joelle.
