HairCon Manchester presents: Pablo Kuemin & Jean-Baptiste Santens – A Look & Learn Experience
For one day only, two of the most influential names in session and editorial hair take the stage together for an exclusive four-hour Look & Learn at HairCon Manchester. This is not a product demo. This is not a brand presentation. This is four uninterrupted hours of creative process, technique, and the mindset behind two extraordinary careers — insights you simply can’t access anywhere else.
Pablo Kuemin
Pablo Kuemin is an international session stylist who works seamlessly between the session and salon worlds — and helps other hairdressers understand both. His mission is to give stylists the techniques and ideas to bring session-level creativity into their salon days, increase their confidence behind the chair, and turn that creativity into more revenue and more fun in their work.
His career spans over 18 years at the absolute highest level of fashion: runway shows, global campaigns, iconic editorial covers, and consulting for some of the biggest hair brands on education and product development. Since the start of his career he has dedicated himself to education, and with the launch of Hair Mastery he now brings high-level training to every corner of the world.
Jean-Baptiste Santens
Jean-Baptiste Santens is one of the most technically and creatively influential hairstylists of his generation. He started young in world championship competitions, where he developed the precision and obsession with detail that still define his work today — and has since consistently pushed the boundaries of what’s possible with hair.
He is been working backstage at the world’s most iconic fashion shows and helping shape runway looks for top designers create hair for People like Beyonce and Gottmik — fusing structure with artistic freedom. His experience across high fashion, editorial, and avant-garde styling gave birth to a signature style that is sculptural, emotional, and unmistakably original.
What sets Jean-Baptiste apart is his ability to combine discipline, intuition, and visual storytelling. His creations are often described as “impossible” and “otherworldly,” and have inspired thousands of hairdressers worldwide.
Together at HairCon Manchester
Two perspectives. Two careers built at the very top of the industry. Four hours of pure knowledge, live demonstration, and creative thinking you can take straight back to your chair.
PABLO
KUEMIN
Pablo Kuemin is an international session stylist who moves fluently between the worlds of session work and salon hairdressing — and helps other stylists do the same. His mission is to bridge the two, translating the techniques and ideas of high fashion into tools that fuel creativity on the salon floor, bring more joy to the working day, and ultimately drive more revenue behind the chair.
His career spans more than 18 years at the very top of the industry: runway shows, global campaigns, iconic editorial covers, and consulting roles with some of the world’s leading hair brands on education and product development.
Education has been at the heart of his work from day one. With the launch of Hair Mastery, Pablo set out to bring world-class hair education to every corner of the globe.
At HairCon Manchester, he takes the stage for an exclusive Look & Learn — four hours inside his creative world. Live demonstrations, the thinking behind the work, and insights you simply won’t find anywhere else.
This is not a product demo.
This is not a brand presentation.
This is four uninterrupted hours of process, technique, and the mindset behind one of the most respected careers in session styling today.
Jean-Baptiste Santens is one of the most technically and creatively influential hairstylists of his generation.
From an early start in world championship competitions—where he developed his precision and obsession with detail—Jean-Baptiste has consistently pushed the boundaries of what’s possible with hair.

Taking a 3 day wig masterclass with Pablo in Toronto was truly an unforgettable experience. Pablo is an amazing educator and the amount of information that was provided was priceless. I highly recommend any of the hair mastery classes for anyone that is interested in wigs!
Eyal Yagudaev
Jean Baptiste Santen’s class in Sydney was nothing short of mind-blowing! The level of creativity, knowledge, and inspiration shared throughout the session was truly over the top. This wasn’t just a class – it was an experience. I walked away with new skills, fresh ideas, and a completely elevated perspective on wig artistry.
Lisa Schoor
Had my first in person class with Hair Mastery, led by Pablo, and it was an incredible wig masterclass. The class was extremely thorough and valuable for both beginners and more advanced wig artists. … Pablo shared so many tips and tricks that only someone with his level of experience could offer. He was down to earth, made everyone feel comfortable, helped build confidence, and is an excellent teacher.
