An evening with Nick Arrojo
Sunday, July 20th, 2008On my agenda for my busy week in Chicago included a hair workshop with the infamous Nick Arrojo from the ‘What Not to Wear’ tv series. Nick has become an inspiration to me since the first day I saw him work his magic to transform the makeover models from drab to fab. Held at The Studio, (a fabulous new training hair training facility in downtown Chicago).

The focus of the workshop was to take existing looks and transforming them using simple techniques, mindful creation, and thoughtful execution to improve the overall look of the client.

Throughout his demonstrations he gave tips and tricks from his expertise with the razor (for which he’s best known for), shared hilarious stories from behind the chair, and dished out inspiration to encourage every hairdresser to create the reality they’d like to see.

Everything from connecting to clients to not only make them look great but feel great while also making the most out of your career through being the master of your own creations. I felt like a sponge soaking up all I could from this remarkable evening with a true master.

Nick dishes out thoughtful and sincere responses to the myriad of questions posed by workshop attendees. I gained allot of respect for his warm and genuine character.

Truly inspiring! Down to earth, funny, and professional. Meeting Nick has inspired and motivated me to create the reality Id like to see in the beauty industry not to mention creating fabulous coifs!
