How KL Hair Academy started

Kaylene’s love of hair started over 37 years ago in a small country town and transformed into an enriching journey that would last for many years, travelling and working in many cities across Australia and the world. She has owned and managed businesses and been involved in delivering and supporting spectacular hair shows, national competitions and training sessions. Kaylene has been exposed to some of Australia’s and the World’s finest, greatest and most inspirational hairdressers.

Respect for her ability to train and present quality education has been recognised by many in this industry. She has shown true organizational skills in the arena of running a training academy.

KL Hair Academy has been an independent training organisation for the past 12 years, uniting a strong team of independent trainers from around Australia.  We have been given credit for our personalized training and are involved with many successful hairdressers and salons.

With the inclusion of our extensive range of hairdressing tools from Excellent Edges we have been filling a niche of education and WH&S for our hands and bodies.

Our business continues to progress from strength to strength - we are once again freshening and updating our image and ability to present current trends in our training
