Colour Specialist Class of 2023

On Monday 22nd January 2024 L’Oréal Professionnel Paris, along with 250 attendees, gathered in London to celebrate those who achieved Colour Specialist status during 2023. Coming from all around the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland, the night was full of reunions with classmates’ elation from completing the course and pride from everyone there to witness their achievement.

With a 27-year history, L’Oréal Professionnel Paris Colour Specialist is legendary because of its thorough curriculum and challenging 15-day format. Receiving the Colour Specialist title is considered prestigious within the hairdressing industry and signals a colourist’s proficient technical expertise. 

L’Oréal Professionnel Paris is a pioneer in educating advanced colouring skill sets. Supporting Colour Specialists reach exceptional standards is a privilege and contributes to uplifting the industry. Each graduate has diligently worked to meet these elevated standards, and they should take pride in their achievement.” – Amy Woolner, Head of Education, L’Oréal Professionnel Paris 

The top takeaway for graduates is often centred around the considerable boost in their confidence levels. Equipped with a comprehensive skill set, the right tools for effective consultations with clients and a deep understanding of hair colouring techniques, graduates feel empowered to tackle any hair colour challenge that walks through their salon door.

Senior colourists and salon owners also echo the profound impact that a Colour Specialist can have when they bring their knowledge back into the workspace. By sharing their expertise, Colour Specialists play a key role in fostering a culture of excellence within their working environment. 

Graduates join over 2,400 strong alumni and get to unlock additional benefits through the Colour Specialist Connective Programme, which is only available to qualified Colour Specialists in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland.

“On behalf of L’Oréal Professionnel Paris, congratulations to the Colour Specialist Class of 2023”. – Amy Woolner, Head of Education, L’Oréal Professionnel Paris
