Forma Collective Salon Founder
CHELSEA vonne JAMES | OWNER | hair STYLIST | INTERNATIONAL ARTIST| EDUCATOR
With a love for hair styling behind the chair, editorial work, and multi-media, Chelsea found continuing her own education sparked an ambition to share her knowledge with her peers. She loves connecting through the creative process we all share and tailoring her classes to the specific learning needs of each stylist. With the same passion for business, she opened her own salon and it translates the ability to help each stylist find their own.
Chelsea is the owner of Fōrma Collective Salon, Master Hair Stylist behind the chair, published nationally as well as with L’Oréal Professionnel. She was the first woman to ever win a Hairbrained Video Award, won NAHA 2017 Avant Garde category, and was a finalist in the L’Oréal Professionnel Color Style Trophy. She has styled for music videos, New York Fashion Week, and facilitated at TEACH IN for Hairbrained at IBS New York and PBA Beauty Week in Las Vegas.
With a genuine love for both the industry and education, she is dedicated to never stop learning and giving back her experiences along the way.
We are a collective of artists that shapes ideas into existence and participates in the beauty of everything.
