What people say…

  • Georgia Quinn, Australia

    I found Candice’s training in 2022 incredibly motivating, particularly her innovative approach to color blocking. Her foresight for trend prediction was impressive, as nearly 2 years later we are seeing these techniques being used.

    Her methods have introduced contemporary, edgy, customizable designs for my salon clients, while simultaneously fueling my inspiration for the 2023 Talent Greenhouse competition.

    Candice encouraged us to push our limits in pursuit of growth. Her authentic and inclusive teaching approach kept me fully engaged and eager to learn and play!

  • Sandra Friedl , Austria

    When we first met Candice she was so heartfelt and friendly.

    If she is doing hair, you can feel absolutely feel her passion about it and it passed on to us.

    We were very inspired by her collection and the stories behind. When Candice explains on stage or also by personal trainings, she always speaks calmly and understandably and gives you the time to learn.

    We will always doing a training or watching a show, with Candice again !!!

    Looking forward to the next one

    I attended a Seminar led by Candice in the wintery month of November in Berlin, nothing warmed me up more than to see my fellow South African on European soil in her limelight.

    Candice's orchestration of the Seminar was exemplary, not only did she deliver her craft with ease, enthusiasm and confidence, but also left every attendee filled and fuelled with begging excitement to execute these fresh new cutting techniques ourselves on clients.

    Candice's attention to detail is mastery and highlights her knowledge, respect and regard of her craft. a true pleasure and delight to have received such inspiration from one of the most dedicated Hair Artists I know.

  • Masha Byshenko, Portugal

    I’m very happy to have met and learned from Candice. For me, it's important how people interact during the teaching process, and with Candice, it was both easygoing and deep at the same time.

    She was fun, focused on everyone, and adept at catching the right moments to comment and communicate during the process.

    My favorite takeaway from this class, which I still use in my everyday practice, is "to catch the rhythm of cutting hair."

    It was an absolutely inspiring class.
