Flexible and inclusive education

I teach because I love to learn

With hard work and dedication, we all aim to achieve our goals

Ben's journey from a young salon worker to a world-renowned educator is a story of determination, reinvention, and passion.

Starting his career at 16 with no natural skills, Ben admits he had to work tirelessly to develop his craft. By the age of 34, as a salon owner responsible for teaching his team, he realized his ability to perform didn’t translate into an ability to teach. This sparked a personal transformation. Using books and online education, Ben embarked on his famous "100 Days" journey, committing to perfecting a single haircut—a graduated bob—every day for 100 days. Through filming, self-reflection, and refinement, he unlocked the mechanics and theory of haircutting.

A LONG TIME PASSION AND EXPERIENCE

Now, having taught in over 40 countries, Ben brings his unique, consumer-based perspective to education. He breaks down the theory behind haircutting, teaching not just the "how" but the "why" behind every technique.

Update Academy, Belgium

Educational, funny, professional, entertaining, enjoyable, inspiring… and then we didn’t even talk about the lessons of Ben Brown. What a lovely man. We will always remember Ben Brown's 2 days at Update Academy Belgium. It was a great collaboration from start to finish. And finish is not the right word, because we will undoubtedly continue to work together in the future. Thank you Ben for inspiring our Belgian hairdressers, making them believe in themselves and let them grow for the future.

I have loved every minute of CORE12 with Ben! Having spent a 1-1 training day with Ben a few years ago I knew as soon as I saw the course that I would greatly benefit from taking part and I wasn’t wrong. Ben breaks each cut down and goes into great depth about why he does things so I felt like I really understood the process and the beauty of having all the videos on Instagram meant that I can rewatch as much as I need to. Even though the cuts seemed familiar, I have learned so much and really feel I’m able to refine my approach to cutting and I have grown in confidence with aspects that I’ve struggled with before, or have just improved my understanding and overcome fears especially when it comes to things like disconnection. I couldn’t recommend this course more, it’s a very worthwhile investment and Ben is such a great teacher, very knowledgable whilst staying real, kind and just wanting to help wherever he can.
