Razor Bootcamp — Corinna Hernandez × Eric Hauck

December 8, 2025 • Pony Studios, Oakland

Take your razor work from basics to brilliance in this one-day Razor Bootcamp with two of the industry’s top educators—Corinna Hernandez and Eric Hauck. Whether you’re newer to the tool or ready to refine your technique, this intensive will give you the fundamentals, foundations, and confidence to cut with intention, texture, and control.

Eric discovered his love for hair in 1997 while teaching English in Japan, after meeting Swedish hairstylist Johan Bergelin. When he returned to the U.S., he began an apprenticeship that ultimately led him to New York City and Bumble & bumble, where he trained under Howard McLaren and rose to Lead Educator and Art Director. His global teaching career and razor mastery make him one of the most respected cutting specialists working today.

Corinna and Eric have each been cutting and educating for nearly 20 years, and their shared history in advanced razor work brings a powerful perspective to this one-day immersive training.

You’ll explore razor theory, cutting patterns, and advanced techniques to create everything from soft, textured bobs to edgy, modern shapes. Expect real-time coaching, expert feedback, and hands-on support throughout the day.
