The Purple Hearts Graduation
A spectacular celebration of education and achievement. The graduation ceremony honours those who have earned their Purple Hearts through dedication and excellence.
The annual Purple Hearts Graduation is a heartfelt recognition of the dedication and hard work our graduates have put into reaching their Purple Hearts.
A day to remember
The Purple Hearts Graduation is unlike any other ceremony in the hair industry. It's a genuine celebration of achievement, filled with joy, pride, and inspiration. Graduates walk the stage to receive their Purple Hearts, surrounded by family, friends, and fellow professionals who understand the significance of their achievement. It's a moment that marks not just the end of a learning journey, but the beginning of a new chapter in their professional lives.

Earning your place on stage
The graduation ceremony is open to all members who have completed their Purple Heart requirements during the year. Whether you've earned your first Purple Heart or advanced to a new level, the graduation is your moment to be recognised.

But for those who choose to graduate, it's an experience that celebrates not just individual achievement but the community that supported them.
