Where visual learners and hands-on creatives come to simplify their skills, strengthen their confidence and feel empowered in their learning process.
"I've taken two in-person classes with Marissa and I can honestly say she is nothing short of amazing. Her education is authentic, genuine, and incredibly motivating. She teaches in a way that's easy to understand while still diving deep into the why behind her techniques, which makes everything truly click. Marissa is beyond passionate about what she does and it shows in every detail. Her approach to creating natural, seamless color is straightforward, intentional, and so refreshing. You leave feeling confident, inspired, and excited to get back behind the chair. On top of all that, she is the absolute sweetest soul. I couldn't recommend her education more to any hairstylist looking to grow - it's worth every second.

"I started following her online and immediately knew I needed to do a shadow day with her. After my shadow day, I think I've also taken at least three additional classes, and I've always learned something new. She has the kindest, most incredible way of teaching and breaking things down to help simplify each project and maintain realistic expectations. She truly loves what she does, and her excitement and knowledge are inspiring. I truly think taking a class from her is a career-changing move in so many different aspects. Just trust me!"

"There are a lot of independent educators out there in our industry and it's always a gamble when you invest in taking a class, if you're going to learn anything. My very first Balayage class was with Marissa in 2015 I believe. There were only 6 of us and it was hands on. I learned so much I decided a few years later to attend a second class. She is a wonderful educator. Clear, patient and very humble. I now continue to take her online education. If you have the opportunity to attend one of her classes, I highly recommend it!"
