Colors, Cuts, and Nails – Oh My!

At Phagans School of Hair Design we are dedicated to helping to build the next generation of beauty professionals.

This industry is full of talented, passionate creatives that pour so much of their hearts and souls into their work and into the beautiful creations they build every day. At Phagans we seek to help our students develop that drive into a beautiful career. It is that drive and dedication that we see on our salon floor, in both our passionate instructors, and in our amazing students.

This month, we want to not only feature the looks of many of our current and former students, but to motivate so many others who hear the call of beauty to follow their dreams.

A Web of a Look

@traythebarber completed this awesome spiderweb design for one of the challenges we hold in our school. We think she blew it away! Give her a like and a follow for more great looks!

Design contest in class today and my spiderweb head patch bang won 😂😂 also designs are significantly easier on a real head. I hate the mannequins so much. #barber #barberlife #phagansschoolofhairdesign #haircut #hairdesigns #barbers #barbering #barbersofinstagram #barberschool #hairgoals #hairyhands #hairart #designcontest #spiderweb #webhead #crewcut

Stunning Acrylics

Hard to believe this is @raindelia_cosmetology’s first time doing a full set of acrylics! We would say she knocked it out of the park!

Bright, Vibrant Color

Even a good dye job has some grow out, this amazing touch up by @_hair_nailsbyjenni is all the rage in multiple shades of shimmering red! We love it! Follow her for more!

Before on the bottom corner After we did a medium brown color on the roots and for the bottoms we did a magenta Blended very nicely, the lighting is terrible so it doesn’t show the ombré well #happyclient #ombre #projects #phagansschoolofhairdesign #_hair_nailsbyjennii #getyourhairdonebyme #happy #beautyschool #haircut #color

Young man came in today, and told me he used to get bullied at school, because he couldn't get the haircuts the other kids got. I told him don't worry I got you. He left all smiles #keepourkidsencouraged #pdxbarber #localbarber #barberlife #ilovebeingabarber #barbershop #phagansschoolofhairdesign
