+: #JPMS Artistic Director @hairbypaulaperalta shared these inspiring words for Black hairdressers and allies. This is a movement, not a moment, and we will continue to use our platform to shed light on these experiences. "A couple of years ago, I was working alongside @ladonnadryer on a long hair Bantu set. After what feels like ages, I was tired, frustrated and ready to give up. Her beautiful hands kept working as she told me, 'Girl, keep going. You're doing fine.' The... end result was one of the most beautiful Bantu sets I'd ever seen and an incredible shot in the @paulmitchellpro campaign.. Black hairdresser friends... I know you're tired and frustrated, angry even. I know sometimes you want to give up. I know you've been at this for what feels like an eternity and you sometimes wonder if it'll ever end, if all the effort is worth it. I know you won't give up, I know you're resilient; it's woven into the tapestry of our DNA. We have been putting in the work, speaking up and people are finally starting to wake up and hear us. The uncomfortable conversations about the lack of access, acknowledgement and advancement for Black people in the beauty industry are being had. All the times we've been discriminated against, passed over and condescended to because of the color of our skin are being realized. Don't give up. Keep going. Black allies, your friends are tired. You need to step up, KEEP stepping up, have the conversations and CONTINUE the conversations, even after it's no longer trendy to do so. We are at a pivotal moment in history and within our industry. This is a movement. Educate yourselves and speak up on behalf of your Black friends. We require you. Together, we will create something wonderful not just for the beauty industry, the world will be better for it. Don't give up. Keep going. Whatever lane you're contributing in, I see you. I love you. Let's go." See more

Crowned in a hair full of braids. #PMTS alum @crownedbylay adds individualistic detail to each braided look using an underhand technique, protecting the hair and scalp. Textured hair immensely benefits from braids because of the protection they offer, decreasing tangling, shedding and breakage. #pmts #pmtslife #paulmitchellschools #paulmitchelltheschool #blackhistorymonth #cosmetology #cosmetologystudent #cosmetologyschool #cosmetologylife #cosmetologyhair #cosmetologygraduate #cosmetologist #inspirehairstyle #hairstylistlife #hairdresser #hairgoals #hairjourney

Last year, The U.S. House of Representatives passed the CROWN Act (Create a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair). The next step is passage by the U.S. Senate. If it passes in the Senate, the CROWN Act will prohibit race-based hair discrimination, making it illegal to discriminate against an individual’s hairstyle or texture nationwide. Join us in taking continued action. Contact your congressperson to help the bill pass in the Senate and sign the petition (link in bio). #pmts #pmtslife #paulmitchellschools #paulmitchelltheschool #blackhistorymonth

Afros emerged in the 1950s and 1960s as a powerful symbol of the Civil Rights Movement. Black people, particularly women, started rejecting European beauty standards and embracing their natural texture. As political and social activists rocked their natural hair while speaking out against oppression, the Afro quickly became a symbol of beauty, liberation and pride in the Black community.

This is the most accomplished I’ve ever felt in my entire life. I did it! I made this happen for myself. During school, I gained a huge confidence boost that I will hold onto and share with the world forever. I’ve met some of the most talented people and have made amazing connections around my community with others in the industry who are all willing to mentor me towards an extensive satisfying career. We are so proud of your accomplishments and can’t wait to see where your career takes you, Sasha!

We have spent the last week writing and rewriting a statement, attempting to find the words to make sure we said what we are trying to say in the most sensitive... and yet impactful way we can. We were trying to get it right. But the fact is, there are no right words you can put around how Black lives don’t have the same equity as white lives. There’s no right way to say that George Floyd was murdered by a racist police officer. We know that white privilege is very real. We know that being comfortable, and only saying things that are comfortable, is part of the problem. So, while we want to be sensitive, while we want the world to know the thought and care that went in to creating the message that was supposed to go outwhat really matters are the facts. The facts are: Black Lives Matter. Period. They not only matter, they are essential, beautiful, and brilliant. We don’t do enough. Simply said, it is clear to us that we don’t. It isn’t enough to have intention; we need firm action. We will always learn as we go. We aren’t here to get it right. We want to serve our world, and the Black population, better. We want to know when we get it wrong. We are taking action. There is much work to be done, and elevating our Black community is officially a top priority for all the years to come. In the meantime, here are some things going into action NOW: We are forming an internal committee that will represent many diverse backgrounds in our company. We want to knownot THINK we know that they are being represented and their voices are being heard. Ads, education, employment: there is no area of our world that this sweeping addition won’t affect. We have supported organizations since the beginning that serve marginalized communities. But providing aid, though important, isn’t going to change the cycle! We are currently vetting organizations to support that help give this community the opportunities they deserve. Internally, we are putting together different ways to provide opportunity for Black artists and future executives. We need more Black voices on every level of our business, including executive. You will hear more on this as it unfolds, but it is being worked on around the clock and is of huge importance. Our education program is being reexamined to create less divide, and to include all hair types as standard learning, not specialized. The fact is that some people will find this letter too harsh, some too vague. But to be the change we want to see; we are speaking to you as honestly and openly as we can in hopes that it will encourage others to do the same. Take the time to educate yourself and speak. It doesn’t have to sound pretty, it doesn’t have to check all the boxes, and it’s okay to say that you don’t know. That is the only way to break this barrier down and start re-building, hand in hand. Just speak, and voice by voice, we can all shape our world into the one we want to leave behind. This isn’t the time to have our company speakit's a time for all of us to. We stand with you in solidarity and with love, John Paul DeJoria Angus Mitchell Michaeline DeJoria Heydari

Thank you to all of our Future Professionals and loyal guests for your patience and understanding through this time, and we are getting our campus, clinic and programs ready to safely be together again!
