The Stylist Elixir Program is a must for aspiring Stylists!
Having done several university Stylist short courses, I can confidently say that I learned the most from Emily and her team. The knowledge and ins and outs of the industry she candidly shares during the Stylist Elixir Program are so valuable to anyone who wants to be a stylist. Thank you for being so kind and honest, Emily. I'll forever be grateful for what I've learned and the support I received.
​
I completed the 5-day Stylist Elixir course in August 2024, and I couldn’t recommend it enough! If you’re interested in becoming a stylist or even just exploring the field, it’s an absolute must. Emily is incredibly passionate and knowledgeable—literally, any question I had, she had an answer. I wouldn’t have the knowledge or confidence I now have moving forward without Emily’s guidance and support. I’m so thankful for the experience!
The Stylist Elixir provided me with hands on experience and key knowledge fashion schools do not teach. Coming from the U.S, Emily and her assistant, Alfred, were very welcoming and helpful. I learned essential skills stylists need to have entering the industry, and received valuable feedback on my resume & portfolio. I especially enjoyed the fact that class sizes were intimate, making it easy to ask questions at any time.
