" We have been fortunate to have Michael educate our team at Salon Kiin over the past 3-4 years in salon privately, and through the B.EDUCATED Contemporary.Refined and Start.Me Cutting Programs for junior and senior stylists.
As an educator Michael provides clear and supportive direction on all cutting he delivers, covering fundamental to advanced cutting techniques. He is able to support his education classes with visual aids, structural graphics, sectioning patterns, and a thorough understanding of natural hair growth patterns.
Michael's wealth of knowledge is evident in his explanations and demonstrations as he provides precision application on what particular cutting techniques will create for a client and their hair to ensure the stylist has the knowledge and skills to personalise haircuts beyond their education classes."

"We’ve spent the last couple of years working with Michael, and my team absolutely love him! Michael visit our salon once a month to teach his INDIVIDUALITY.Your.Program, which is tailored to my team’s individual needs, and there’s flexibility in either a full or half day workshop.
He has an innate ability to communicate and to help his students really understand something complicated, in a simple form.
He has an incredible ability to connect with people at all levels, and our team thoroughly enjoy each time he is in the salon. After each session, immediately the next day we can see the difference and our team really putting into practice what they had learned the day before.

Although Michael’s work is very technical and precise, there is a real commercial element to his work that can be used on a daily basis, which is invaluable in the salon environment. Michael’s ability to understand where everyone is at and adapt his education across all different levels, in the one class, and make everybody feel like they are the most important person in the room is truly inspiring.
Knowing Michael and his commitment to educating all levels of hairdressers, especially the younger ones with industry growth in mind, I think he is really deserving of winning this award, and we are truly grateful as a team that we have had the pleasure of welcoming him into our salon. "

" I have been in the hairdressing industry for over 30 years during this time have participated in many national and international Education training and workshops. Michael Belcastro's platform with monthly workshops exceeds all education I have experienced. Michael's unique approach is creative and inspiring that allows for aspiring and advanced hairdressers to explore multiple hairstyles and techniques with one mannequin building each month from the previous haircut. I don’t know of anyone to create this module that Michael has managed to achieve so perfectly.

Michael's nurturing approach encourages the stylist and promotes confidence with a range of new looks. This type of education taken back into the salon creates a unity within. Allowing the team to work together with the same terminology.

Michael Belcastro is the master of education. All my staff and myself have been a part of beducated.michael belcastro over the years and have had nothing but success when recreating looks from education we have attended.

Over the COVID-19 lockdown period Michael was prepared with online education through @bededucated.michael belcastro instagram and Facebook another brilliant move on Michael’s part. Documenting all his workshop education with images of his students mid cut or small videos of techniques from the program. ”Emotional learning” has not been thoroughly explored yet but Michael has this covered. Emotional learning through his pages allows his students to re-experience. "
