Wella professionals generation now team complete bootcamp

The Wella Professionals Generation NOW 2012/13 team kicked off their year in the style with a once-in-a-lifetime bootcamp boasting mentoring and education from a series of industry icons. 

Gareth Vance and Caroline Spencer from Sassoon started day one with a creative cut and colour workshop, demonstrating their latest collection and providing valuable insight on how to prepare and execute cuts for show and stage work. "This year's team are a talented group," said Gareth. "Each with a strong individual style and an enthusiasm to learn."

Next was a workshop covering commercial cut and colour skills and a glamour styling session, both hosted by Kai Wan of P.Kai Hair. "The team took a lot of hints and tips away with them," said Kai. "Combined with their own creativity, I can't wait to see what they produce in the coming year!"  

Finally the team got the unique chance to experience a photoshoot with guidance from leading session stylist, Adam Reed of Percy and Reed. The team learnt tips of the trade and enjoyed expert advice on how to put a collection together. "My priority was to expose them to the creative thought process that goes into putting together a collection," said Adam. 

In addition to mentoring from guest icons, the team also enjoyed training in product knowledge, presentation skills and media relations - setting them up perfectly for an action-packed year.
