PRESS RELEASE 26|08|26
The official global press release of the Global Hair Collective
WHAT DOES THE FUTURE OF HAIR EDUCATION LOOK LIKE?
Global Hair Collective officially launches in August 2026 - a premium international hair education network founded by Daniele De Angelis, bringing together internationally respected educators united by one shared vision.
To mark the official launch, the educators joining Global Hair Collective will be unveiled during a dedicated Global Reveal Day on 26.08.26. Throughout the day, each educator will be introduced individually via the official Global Hair Collective Instagram account, in collaboration with their own social channels, creating a coordinated international launch across multiple countries.
LOVE WHAT YOU DO. RESPECT THE CRAFT. TREAT PEOPLE WELL.
THE INDUSTRY HAS CHANGED
For decades, professional hair education was built inside institutions. The companies that shaped modern hairdressing gave generations of educators something invaluable: structure, credibility and a place to grow. They built careers, they built standards and they laid the foundations our industry still stands on.
Then the world changed. An online digital presence gave educators something they had never had before - the opportunity to build their own audience, their own reputation and their own identity. A generation of educators stepped out independently. Many built extraordinary careers. But something else happened too. The industry began to fragment. Shared standards and the feeling of belonging to something bigger slowly disappeared.
There was something that few people spoke about openly:
Being an independent educator can be a lonely place. People see the travel, the seminars, the stage and the audiences. What they don’t see is the person behind it - managing bookings, creating content, building relationships, preparing alone and learning as they go. The freedom was real. But so was the weight that came with it.
WE ARE EDUCATORS.
WE ARE ARTISTS.
WE ARE PROFESSIONALS.
A PLATFORM BUILT FOR THE INDIVIDUAL
Global Hair Collective was created to bridge that gap - to stand between the great institutions and the independent educator, offering something neither could provide alone. It amplifies the voice of exceptional educators while preserving what makes each of them unique.
Global Hair Collective connects exceptional educators to salons, academies, education hubs, distributors and event organisers across the world. Through one international network, education can be tailored to every need - from bespoke in-salon training for a single team to international seminars, collaborative events and major industry shows.
For educators, it creates opportunities without compromising their independence. For salons, it brings world-class education directly to their teams, wherever they are. For academies, education hubs, distributors and partners, it provides access to a trusted international network capable of delivering education at every level. It is having a network that stands behind you to help you grow, to open doors and to share experiences that give you the confidence to keep moving forward. It is the difference between building alone and building with people who believe in what you do.
Because when a Global Hair Collective educator takes the stage, they are never just representing themselves. They represent a global movement built on shared values, exceptional standards and a commitment to elevating our industry. Every presentation, seminar and show carries not only their own voice, but the experience, vision and strength of the Global Hair Collective behind it.
BUILD GLOBALLY.
DELIVER LOCALLY.
THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE MOVEMENT
Earlier this year, two posts appeared:
‘Become a Global Educator’ and ‘Make Education Your Business’
The response was immediate and overwhelming. Applications arrived from around the world. The decision, however, was to begin with educators already respected within their markets - the people who would establish the standard for everything still to come.
The founding team spans the globe, covering every discipline of the craft while pioneering programmes in Human & Communication - placing consultation, psychology and emotional intelligence at the heart of modern education.
Rather than announcing the founding team through a single post, each educator will be introduced individually throughout Global Reveal Day on 26.08.26. Every introduction forms part of one coordinated international launch, giving each educator their own moment while showcasing the collective as a unified global movement.
OPEN TO THE WORLD - GLOBAL HAIR COLLECTIVE AFFILIATE PARTNERS
With the global founding team now in place, Global Hair Collective is actively seeking Affiliate Partners across international markets. Whether you are an academy, education hub, distributor, organisation or industry connector, Global Hair Collective welcomes conversation with aligned partners who share the vision of raising standards and expanding access to exceptional education worldwide.
TOGETHER, WE ARE REDEFINING
WHAT INDEPENDENT EDUCATION
CAN BECOME.
IN THE FOUNDER’S WORDS
‘I am not here to reinvent the wheel. What I saw was a model that was missing - a space between the great institutions and the independent educator. A platform where you belong to something, but your name, your identity and your growth are always yours. That is what Global Hair Collective is.
What surprised me most was the response. It confirmed what I had believed all along: the industry wasn’t looking for another academy. It was ready for a different way of growing together’
