Alejandro Jimenez

April 27, 2009 (RALEIGH, NC) – Bumble & bumble educator, platform artist, and runway editorial artist, Alejandro Jimenez took center stage at Samuel Cole Salon to share his expertise and inspire the design teams from both Samuel Cole Salon and Salon Moxie.  Jimenez has been doing editorial hair with Bumble’s elite runway team for many years (Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show being one of the many).  He serves as the Bumble Educator in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions.

Jimenez shared his favorite aspect of hairdressing – styling.  “Styling is the moment in the overall experience when you can really make the color and cut come alive,” said Jimenez.  He demonstrated many styling techniques using Bumble’s newest products, Gel and Gellac.  “This demonstration really gave us ideas and inspiration on what we could bring back to our clients.  Alejandro’s use of textures, shapes, and movement combined with different products was phenomenal.  I can’t wait to incorporate some of these new techniques into my styling,” said Nichole LuMaye, a Samuel Cole Salon designer.

According to Jack Ray, Master Stylist and co-owner of Samuel Cole Salon and Salon Moxie along with his wife, Joelle Ray, “It was such an honor to have Alejandro in our salon sharing his passion for hairdressing with our teams.  He was engaging, inspirational and had a great sense of humor.  Samuel Cole Salon is an exclusive salon with Bumble & bumble which allows us the opportunity to bring industry experts, like Alejandro, right here to inspire and teach our teams.  This is what helps set us apart from other salons in the area – continual and exceptional education – and a world class salon experience, of course.  We are committed to it”.
