Hair Color Masterclass and Clinic with John Kaytaz


On Monday, July 13, renowned stylist, Master colorist, award-winning salon owner and consultant to various cosmetic lines John Kaytaz was in El Paso to give a master class on hair color and color correction. Along with members of his design team, John showed attendees, most of which were salon owners, cosmetologists, or cosmetology students, how to achieve perfect color every time for any hair type. Mr. Kaytaz, the founder of JKS International Salons and the JKS International line of hair products, demonstrated his techniques on volunteer models using, naturally, products from the JKS collection. Elysian Photography was there to get some before and after shots of the models as they went through their hair transformation.

I have to say, the team does some pretty cool stuff. While some of the color techniques simply enhance natural color, I was impressed with the color corrections done with really wild or faded hair color.

Special thanks goes to the organizers of the class, Merle Norman/Salon Source and Fabi's Beauty Salon, along with Mira Beauty for putting this together and inviting us to attend. And of course, many thanks to John Kaytaz and his team for being so passionate about their art and being so approachable and generally very cool.
