The Science of Color, Big Show Coming Up! w/ Jenna Caldwell

Jenna Caldwell is back and booming. In this episode we dive into The Colorist Blueprint—her fast-growing, science-first education platform. We unpack why micro-encapsulated developers matter, what those blue/red/yellow dye molecules actually do in the hair, timing drills, and the shift from “blonder is better” to health, shine, and longevity.Inside the Blueprint: a three-part path (chemistry & formulation → hands-on drills & placements → business systems) plus scripts and templates to raise prices without the ick. Jenna shares how she went global in 7 months, why accessibility for new stylists matters, and teases upcoming classes on reds, corrections, and social media. We wrap with my new game Head Rush and a quick plug: Jenna is headlining the Independent Beauty Show (Rochester, NY).Subscribe, drop your biggest takeaway in the comments, and check the show notes for Jenna’s links and details.
