12 MENTORS. 12 SESSIONS. 6 MONTHS. ONE INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY.

The future of our industry starts with education.

Proud to be part of HAIR THE MOVEMENT – NEXTGEN, an incredible initiative created by the legendary Sharon Blain.

Bringing together 12 leading industry mentors over six months, NextGen is designed to inspire, educate and empower the next generation of hairdressers.

From cutting, colour and styling to business, creativity and career development, this is about sharing real knowledge, building strong foundations and giving emerging talent the confidence to succeed.

I’ve always believed that education, mentorship and mastering the fundamentals are the foundations of a successful career.

Our responsibility as industry leaders is not just to create great hairdressers today, but to help develop the exceptional hairdressers of tomorrow.

An incredible opportunity to learn from some of the best in our industry.

This post is a big thank you to Redken Australia and Redken International for everything you have done for me over the last 13 years.

You have given me opportunities I could never have imagined . . . allowing me to travel the world, educate internationally, grow as an artist, hair direct and continually push myself creatively.

During this journey, I’ve been fortunate enough to win Australian Hairdresser of the Year, be twice named Australian Colourist of the Year, and celebrate multiple training/business awards with Co and Pace Salons.

I genuinely wouldn’t be the hairdresser, educator or business owner I am today without the coaching, mentorship, education and opportunities Redken Australia and Redken International have given me.

I’m incredibly grateful for everything Redken has done for me personally, for my career and for Co and Pace Salons.

Thank you for 13 incredible years, for believing in me, and for a journey filled with experiences, friendships and memories I will carry with me forever.

Thank you, Redken. What a journey. taken in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia by @pacejustin

Introducing ‘The Feed’ 👀

Created by the 2026 winners of the CURATE Awards, Mia Cribb, Sandhya Silwal, Nikita Wells, Jasmin Warren and Greta Baxendale, ‘The Feed’ explores the tension between what is real and what is broadcast.

The concept is drawn from a world where nothing simply happens anymore; it is filmed, filtered, posted and re-watched. It calls to mind the constant loop of the social media feed, a space where a moment barely exists before it’s already being replayed and shared. It’s a fitting lens for this collection, where the camera itself becomes part of the story, capturing each look as it’s created and instantly echoing it back.

Every now and then, you arrive at a juncture.

A moment to look at where you’ve come from, appreciate the people who helped you along the way, and think about where you want to go next.

Never stop growing.
Never stop learning.
Never stop challenging yourself.

Sometimes growth means walking a different path.
