Wahl Australia's Educational Road

Tour Elevating Skills with Yuki Kano

Wahl recently brought their educational road tour to Sydney, featuring the skilled Yuki Kano. The event showcased two cutting-edge styles - ‘The Shag’ and ‘The Textured Skin Fade’ - through a Look & Learn workshop and a Hands-On workshop at The Studio X. Yuki’s proficiency in combining clippers and scissors was a focal point. The Look & Learn workshop demonstrated ‘The Shag’ on a live model, providing insights into trendy techniques. The HandsOn workshop, centred around ‘The Textured Skin Fade,’ allowed participants hands-on experience with mannequins under Yuki’s guidance. Yuki’s unique approach emphasises using both clippers and scissors, providing a stylistic advantage and minimising the risk of repetitive strain injuries (RSI) and stress. She highlighted the importance of clippers for swift and precise cutting. As an added bonus for the Sydney class, Mocha Groups Jarred Stedman, did an editorial shoot with Yuki’s model, to demonstrate how the cut can be transformed on camera. The educational road tour has covered Brisbane, Sydney, Newcastle, and Melbourne, featuring renowned educators like Mark Robone, Anthony Nafatali, Sarah Wall, and Ben Kane. Wahl’s commitment to education and innovation was evident, with Yuki Kano leaving an indelible mark on participants, equipping them with valuable skills. The success of the Sydney workshop sets the stage for more exciting events as Wahl continues its educational journey across Australia. Stay tuned for upcoming workshops in a city near you as Wahl Australia shapes the future of grooming and styling. @wahlproaus @yukikano Imagery ©mocha group 42 Barber Shop Year 12 Issue 4
