Is This the Right Fit for You?
This is an immersive, 2-day learning experience built for stylists who are ready for more—more intention, more creativity, more growth.
Here’s how to know if it’s the right next step for you:
You’re a good fit if…
- You have 2+ years of experience working with long hair—bridal, salon, or editorial
- You’re craving a creative breakthrough after years of playing it safe
- You want to elevate your work from “pretty” to purposeful—and develop your own signature voice
- You learn best by doing, not just watching
- You’re ready for real-time feedback, real-time growth, and a return to artistry
- You feel like there’s more in you—and you’re done waiting to find it
This probably isn’t for you if…
- You’re fresh out of beauty school or just getting started with long hair styling
- You’re looking for quick trends or surface-level inspiration
- You prefer to watch silently without engaging, asking questions, or experimenting
- You’re not open to making mistakes, being coached, and growing through the awkward middle
- You want a pre-recorded class with no interaction
What You’ll Actually Learn—and Why It Matters
This isn’t just a look-and-learn class. Every moment of the bootcamp is designed to help you see differently, style intentionally, and refine your creative instincts with purpose.
You’ll walk away with a sharper eye, stronger hands, and the ability to design from the inside out.
These are the high-level techniques you’ll learn hands-on and apply in real time:
- Building balanced, long-lasting foundations that photograph beautifully
- Seven distinct styles of backcombing (from soft to structural)
- Pinning methods for both hold and softness—with invisible craftsmanship
- Seamless use of toppers, wefts, and hairpieces
- Creating modern editorial styles inspired by fashion, not trends
- Translating inspiration into structured, wearable looks for real-world clients
- “Undoing” or deconstructing styles for a modern, effortless feel
- Understanding camera angles and lighting to create your “hero shot”
This is where styling becomes story. These are the artistic muscles you’ll strengthen:
- Face shape analysis + story-based consultation
- Mapping a full design arc before you even touch the hair
- Seeing like a photographer—anticipating what the lens will capture
- Self-critiquing in real time using mirrors, angles, and proportion
- Journaling and photo documentation for visual learning and growth
- Building muscle memory so you can style with instinct and speed
- Designing with identity, personality, and purpose—not just Pinterest trends
- Cultivating artistic taste—what to leave in, what to leave out
Choose Your Journey.
Same content. Different depth of transformation.
Both Gold and Silver access give you full entry into the 2-day live training, but the way you engage—and the level of feedback you receive—is entirely up to you. Choose the format that fits your learning style and goals.
You’ve watched tutorials. You’ve taken classes. But this is something entirely different.
Real-Time Coaching—Not Passive Content
Most classes are “watch and hope.” This is “show and do.”
Gold participants receive live, interactive feedback on their form, pinning, product use, and more—during the session, in the moment. Silver learners get structured access, guided chat, and full replays for reflective practice.
A Full Learning Arc: Idea → Execution → Feedback → Mastery
You don’t just follow steps—you learn how to think like an artist.
Vivienne guides you from pre-visualization to troubleshooting and self-critique, so you build real systems that stick.
Visual Journaling for Deeper Retention
You’ll photograph your progress as you go—capturing micro-breakthroughs and learning how to see growth with your own eyes.
It’s part education, part portfolio development, and 100% transformative.
Fashion-Forward Taste, Not Bridal Catalog Clichés
Most education still teaches outdated looks that don’t hold up.
Vivienne brings the eye of a fashion editor, the structure of a master stylist, and the sensitivity of a storyteller. You’ll learn to design styles that are current, elevated, and camera-ready.
A Path Beyond the Bootcamp
Most classes end when the Zoom call does. This one doesn’t.
Vivienne’s Editorial Membership Path gives you long-term mentorship, monthly feedback sessions, and an evolving archive of advanced training—so your growth compounds over time.

“Is this too advanced for me?”
“Can’t I just learn this on YouTube?”
“Is it really worth the cost?”
