PROJECT MEN SPEND THE DAY WITH LEADING EDUCATOR CHARLES GRAY

The team travelled to Bolton in Lancashire to spend the day with Charles Gray.

After 12 years in the hair and fashion industry, Charles has become one of the leading educators within men’s hairdressing across the globe with a formidable reputation and unparalleled experience to most. 

Charles has recently set his sights on the fashion & editorial world by drumming up work with top brands such as Vetements, FILA, Haider Ackermann, Represent Clothing and Pretty Green just to name a few.

The morning consisted of a trend report and brand building digital lectures and a visual demonstration of an on-trend men's haircut from myself.  Followed by a hands-on cutting workshop in the afternoon, finishing off with a small review at the end of the day.

Elettra Guggeri comments: "I was really looking forward to meeting Charlie Gray and spending the day learning from him. I’ve been following him for years, from Menspire up to the launch of his education platform, Hair in Motion. I love the way he approaches hair. He goes through different techniques that seamlessly blend together and turn into a modern yet beautifully structured hairstyle. I love the whole brand and concept behind it, so unique and current. After his lecture and hair demo we went into practical and he showed us how to create one of the most on trend men’s style at the moment, the shaggy mid length cut. Overall, the day was10 out of 10! So inspiring and I am definitely going to attend some more of his courses!”
