EDUCATION WITH MICHAEL RINCON

A modern approach to lived-in color for the next generation of stylists.

REFINED, REAL-WORLD COLOR EDUCATION

My goal is simple: help stylists create soft, dimensional color that looks natural, grows out beautifully, and photographs effortlessly.

Education with me goes beyond formulas.
We focus on placement, balance, decision-making, and the small details that separate technical color from luxury color.

Whether you are strengthening fundamentals or refining an established clientele, classes are designed to elevate both artistry and business.

TECHNIQUES & TOPICS

Lived-In Blonde Placement
Creating bright, seamless blondes without harsh lines. Sectioning strategy, foil patterns, blending, and tonal refinement.

Dimensional Brunettes
Adding depth and contrast while maintaining shine and natural movement.

Soft Reds & Modern Warmth
Undertone matching, formulation, and believable red placement.

Hairline & Face Frame Detailing
Micro-weaves, baby lights, and placement that keeps brightness lasting longer.

Glossing & Tonal Refinement
Neutralizing warmth, refining depth, and achieving soft editorial finishes.

Building consistency, increasing pricing, and growing a recognizable clientele — including working across multiple cities.
