  • I have had the pleasure of participating in several cutting classes taught by Patrick. The courses have been not only inspiring creatively but have offered skills and techniques I can apply to my daily practice as a stylist. Patrick provides a comprehensive and masterful approach to cutting a wide range of styles and hair textures. Patrick is a fun and passionate person and his enthusiasm rubs off on his students.
