With more than 30 years in the professional beauty industry, Anne Chesbro has built a career behind the chair, in the classroom, and deeply rooted in the science of hair. She is the co-owner of Platinum Salon ROC Inc. and owner of Platinum Salon Suites LLC, where she leads an education-driven associate program designed to develop confident, capable stylists—not just technical skill sets.

In this session, you’ll connect the chemistry of hair color to your creative decision-making behind the chair. Through clear explanations and highly visual analogies, you’ll better understand how and why color works — helping you approach formulation and placement with greater precision and efficiency. You’ll gain practical insights into analyzing inspiration images, creating intentional color placement, and simplifying complex formulation decisions. With an approach grounded in real research and salon reality, Anne supports you in trusting your knowledge and applying it with confidence.
