Conor James Education

I adore teaching and learning from others. I am not perfect, and I make no claim to be. In my career, I've made mistakes, encountered difficulties and challenges, and had many amazing and privileged situations that have helped me grow as a stylist and educator. In both life and colour, I search for solutions. I'm always asking,"Why?" Like many of us in the hair industry, I'm neurodivergent. Like many of us in the hair industry, we deserve better education. In 2016, Conor James Education was born, initially with five students learning basic foil patterns. Since then, it's grown into rooms with hundreds of attendees, online communities of thousands, and international collaborations with renowned brands like Redken, Olaplex, Eleven Australia, and L'Oreal. My dedication to inclusive learning was recognised when I won the esteemed 'Most Wanted Educator' Award in the Creative Head Awards in 2023. I will continue to have an ongoing commitment for educational improvement for hairdressers all around the world.
