Michael Gordon, Founder Bumble & BumbleMichael Gordon, Founder Bumble & Bumble  “There are many benefits in going to a good yoga class but you don’t usually expect to find a great hair stylist there. One of the fellow students in the class I usually go to always seemed to have a brilliant haircut. After about a year we got to chatting and I commented on her haircut and discovered it was Laara Raynier who had been doing it. Laara was trained by one of the best in the world and it shows. She has great taste, great technique and manages to give a strong shape without making it look over cut, something I particularly like. Besides this, she has great knowledge about the history of hairstyling, information that few hairdressers seem to be taught. I would highly recommend Laara to anyone who wants to be taught the artof cutting hair. “

Edward Tricomi, Warren Tricomi Salons, Haircare, NY “I have known Laara Raynier personally and professionally since 1988. When I first met Laara she was working with the hair icon Roger Thompson at Barney’s New York. In 1998 she joined my salon Warren Tricomi. She is charming, magnetic and exudes passion and creativity. She’s a natural artist and one of the best haircutters I know. Laara has also distinguished herself as an outstanding teacher and sales expert. She excels at teaching haircutting and sharing her vast knowledge and experience with those she teaches. If you are serious about learning how to cut hair, train with Laara Raynier.”

A.L.B, Superstar New York City Lawyer “Laara Raynier is much more than a hairdresser. She delves into your taste and look and then makes your hair look much better than you could imagine, she just plainly does it better.. and with style. Before Laara, I had an average hair dresser, Laara turned my hair into a superstar. Meaning, after meeting Laara, I started appearing on television more often and eventually all major television stations. Most make-up artists I would sit in front of would always stay away from my hair and many times complimenting Laara. How much credit do I give Laara? The same amount I give how much looks count in our society. So now almost ten years later, Laara has never missed an appointment, she cares about me deeply as a client and obsesses over making my hair perfect.”

Theresa Rebeck, Creator of the TV show “Smash” & the leading woman playwright in America. “Laara Raynier can do anything. A brilliant haircut, perfect highlights, gorgeous color – she has all the techniques of a master stylist and the eye of an artist. She does me and my whole family and has done so for the past 15 years and we all look great. When I travel my hair always looks amazing and when I have a play opening on Broadway, she’s the one I trust. Plus she is hilarious. Getting my hair done has never been so much fun. I can’t recommend this genius highly enough!”

Sophia Atsidis, Stylist, Insignia Salon, Baltimore “Laara is an amazing teacher! Day 2 and I’ve already learned so much. Laara is great at explainingg everything and she is very hands-on.”

Jennifer Lauren, Hair Diva, Stamford, CT “Laara Raynier has wonderful energy and I love how she commands the room and stayed on course. She not only explained the “why” but really shows the result of why it is the better way. I learned that I need to be neater. I need to be more precise with my sectioning. I learned why we don’t touch the hair with our hands, but to use our tools. Laara has given me more than those lessons, she’s given me my motivation back. I had lost it for a while . For that I can’t thank you enough, Laara! You will see me again on October 25. I look so forward to it. Thank you for the pics as well!”

Marg Cameron, Hair on Seaview, Australia “I came from Australia to attend Laara’s workshop and a private class. She is totally professional. We did a long layered haircut on the beautiful Rebecca. Wavy long layers, the face-frame. It was fun and fabulous! I learned so much, it was well worth it. I will definitely come back again.

Paula, Salon Owner, Salon One, Boston, Ma  “Laara delivered a very inspiring class. I would love to learn more haircutting with her. I loved the spirituality that was brought into the class, especially the emphasis on “women”!

Jennifer Alenovitz, Salon Owner, Lancaster, PA “Laara, I just wanted to thank you for everything! You are fantastic! I learned so much from you on Sunday. I’m so inspired to be the best I can be at my career. Words just aren’t enough. I can’t wait to attend more classes, you are truly a mentor to me.”

Trisha, Stylist, Salon One, Boston, MA “Laara is an inspiration. She captured the audience and did gorgeous haircuts.”

Kristen, Salon Manager, Salon One, Boston, MA  “Laara is an amazing educator!! She makes learning new skills interesting and innovative.”

Cristy Miller, South Carolina  “I traveled from South Carolina for 10 Master cutting classes. Through her skilled teaching not only will you gain precision cutting skills you leave with the knowledge of how to do a proper client consultation with confidence. Laara Rayniers is truly an inspiration. Her energy and her passion is contagious. She’s the most amazing incredible teacher I could ever have wanted. The models were wonderful. Curly hair, Asian hair, straight hair, long and short hair. Real personalities, Real clients. I had the best experience of my life. I gained so much knowledge I’ve made arrangements for a up coming workshop in April in Miami Florida and I plan on sharping up my skills with her again. I thank you so much Laara Rayniers. Not only is she a wonderful educator, she is my mentor, inspiration to strive to be the best I can and a new friend.”

Leonardo Costa, Toca Hair, Sau Paulo, Brazil “We came all the way from Sau Paulo, Brazil and she’s even more amazing then we could have imagined! She is a teacher with amazing experience and you can tell she loves to cut hair and teach. We want her to come to Brazil!”

Rachel Smith, Carmine Minardi, NY “After being a hairstylist for almost 20 years in NYC and working with some of the best hairdressers in the industry, I decided it was time to take classes again to sharpen my skills. I’ve taken many classes over the years ( Sassoon, Toni & Guy) but this time I really wanted to find a private teacher. I wanted someone who would give me undivided attention and give me an honest opinion about what I needed to improve. I also felt i needed some motivation to push myself outside of my comfort zone. When I called Laara, the first thing I liked about her is that she’s super enthusiastic AND she not only teaches, but she’s worked at the best salons in the city. She was trained by Roger Thompson (who was a direct protege of Vidal Sassoon). For those who aren’t old enough to be impressed by this, let me tell you, you need to do your homework and GET impressed! Laara isn’t some beauty school teacher, she’s the real deal and has a full career as a very successful stylist. She’s taken what she’s learned from the absolute masters of haircutting and is passing that knowledge on to anyone who’s interested in learning. That is freaking amazing stuff! As for the classes, we decided to focus on the bob haircut. It may seem like a simple haircut, but all hairstylists know that doing a perfect precision bob is really difficult to do and takes a LOT of practice and skill. Laara is a MASTER of the bob cut! She has a rock solid technique and understands HOW to effectively teach her method. She will push you, she’ll cheer you on and she’ll give you your time and money’s worth. I ended up taking a group class after my private sessions and that was a great experience too. The classes are kept pretty small so I still got the attention I needed and being around other stylists in a learning environment was really a lot of fun. After Laara’s classes I had a client (who’s usually very picky about her cuts) tell me that that haircut was the best I’d ever given her!!! One last thing i’d like to mention is that I not only improved my skills, but after being around Laara, I started to breathe new life into my career in a way I hadn’t expected. I can’t recommend her highly enough!!”

“This is my 3rd time with Laara, I always pick up more about her technique. She is hilarious, informative, and keeps my attention. Every time I see Laara its a new experience. Her work is AMAZING.”
Darlene Medina, Mancuso Salon, Sparta, NJ

“Laara, you’re the best. I’m so excited to work with you. I repeat everything I learned at your workshop- and my clients really see a difference. I can’t wait for our next workshop- its amazing what I can do with the training I’ve been receiving from your classes! Thank you so much for helping me! Love you!”
Rocco Compitello, White Plains, NY 

“Nice to have an instructor that is passionate in her craft after being in the industry for 30 years. You will leave this class with confidence. I also like the diversity of the models, I was able to cut straight and curly hair I have had lots of education and this is the best by far.”
Kihjuana Mack, Kijuana Salon, Miami, FL

“Laara is a true professional and an amazing artist. She is very motivating and her love of her art is inspiring. I learn so much. Not only did I learn one technique in cutting, I learned to look at my client in a whole new way. She taught me to truly assess the hair and face shape. She also reminded me of using good habits and precision in cutting and body positioning. I believe she made me a better cutter and renewed my passion for hairdressing.”
Terrryl Whorley, Denver, CO

Karen Dechart, JLS Hair Studio, Canton, OH, attended Mastercutter Academy Workshop

I had the pleasure of having my haircut by Laara Raynier. Laara is not just an expert but a sculptor. She teaches and instills confidence to both her clients and her students. As soon as she makes eye contact with you, you can feel her studying your features as she begins to plan the perfect look. When she begins to cut she is extremely precise; it is as if she cuts every single hair individually. She will not step away until she is 110 percent satisfied and has left you, the client beaming with confidence. I left Laara’s chair with a cut that refreshed my entire look, accentuated my best facial features, and simply made me feel beautiful.

She’s an awesome teacher and a lot of fun to work with. She has reignited my passion for hair. It was worth the 24 hour trip to New York City from Australia to take her classes. Thank you Laara, I will be back next year.”
– Rocco D’Amore, Zedi Salon, Melbourne, Australia, attended two day private class in NY

“I started taking private classes from Laara in the past year. Laara is the teacher I had been looking for but I didn’t know where to look. I only wish now that I had found her sooner. From the first class you see what you’ve been missing. From holding your comb to partings to where you stand, Laara will lead you to be a better hairstlyist by example. My clients have been coming back to me lately saying “this is the best haircut I’ve ever had”. New clients come back telling me that they feel they don’t need to spend as much time on their hair because they have a great haircut. I feel much more confident in my haircutting now and my time with Laara has already changed the path of my career.”
