Wella’s Hairdressers At Heart Will Two Master Color Expert Scholarships

Wella’s Hairdressers at Heart is now accepting applications for two Master Color Expert Scholarships – one that will be awarded to a Wella Colorist and the second to a Wella School Instructor. It is the first time Hairdressers at Heart has awarded a pair of the highly sought-after advanced education scholarships.

The Wella Master Color Expert Program represents the industry’s highest achievement in color and the most distinguished degree in the industry. Each scholarship covers all program prerequisites, valued at $3,750, in addition to $2,000 in travel and reimbursable expenses.

The expansion of the Master Color Expert scholarship program reflects Hairdressers at Heart’s commitment to education and mentorship throughout the careers of colorists, stylists and educators.

“In 2017 we at Wella and Hairdressers at Heart wanted to role educators into the scholarship because of the critical role they play in the continuing education of colorists and stylists across the industry,” said Sal Mauceri, Senior Vice President North America Professional Beauty and Global Nail at Coty Beauty. “Hairdressers at Heart is constantly exploring ways to provide life-changing education that serves as a catalyst in the careers of talented professionals, and we feel strongly that the Master Color Expert program offers the best advanced education opportunity in the industry.”

The Wella Master Color Expert course is a signature, 10-day seminar completed in two five-day phases offered at Wella Studios. Focused on giving students an expert-level understanding of color, the certification course begins by establishing Wella’s color theory before transitioning into building technical and creative skills, allowing stylists to master their craft and grow their clientele. Master Color Expert graduates have been found to grow their personal revenue up to 30 percent more than non-graduates.

To participate in the Master Color Expert program, candidates must have five years of color experience and have completed Wella’s Color Craft, Foiling Craft, Color Correction and Creative Color classes.
