Kochi, Kerala — May 28, 2025

Vurve Academy has opened a new training hub in Kochi, expanding its professional hair education footprint beyond Chennai and Bangalore. The academy brings global-standard, industry-ready training to Kerala’s growing beauty and fashion ecosystem.

Why Vurve Academy in Kochi

Kochi is a natural home for a dedicated salon and hair academy: a fast-evolving style culture, a deep talent pool, and strong demand for structured, career-focused training. The city’s response to Vurve’s Hair Academy has been exceptional, with consistent interest and enquiries across social platforms.

We saw what Kochi could be and believed it was time to deliver something exceptional through a hair academy in Kochi that blends global expertise with local creativity and passion for hair.

A Grand Opening Featuring Vipul Chudasama

Guiding the academy’s academic vision is celebrity hairstylist Vipul Chudasama, who has joined Vurve as Chief Education Officer. With decades of creative excellence, runway work, and collaborations with leading brands, he sets the benchmark for technical quality and pedagogy.

To inaugurate the center, Vurve hosted an exclusive Look & Learn Masterclass in Kochi featuring techniques from Vurve’s TIMELESS Iconic Hair Collection. The session brought together aspiring stylists and working professionals for live demonstrations and insider technique sharing. He delivered live demonstrations, shared insider hairstyling techniques, and revealed what success truly takes in the wellness and beauty world and how to become a successful hairdresser with Vurve Academy’s training.

Just like how cleansing and exfoliating your face has become a part of your everyday routine, it’s time to show your scalp some love too.

Scalp health is majorly overlooked in the quest for shiny, healthy hair, especially in India. Whether it is your relaxing champi routine during weekends or a rushed shampooing during weekday mornings – it eventually leads to product build-up on your scalp and causes dandruff over time. Scalp care is widely ignored and we tend to focus only on keeping our hair clean and healthy, while our scalp gets lost in the mane.

A scrub has powerful capabilities that can be unlocked to cleanse the scalp, remove dead skin cells and wash away product build-up- essentially strengthening your scalp and stimulating hair growth.

While face scrubs are associated to be harsh on the skin, let us demystify what a hair scrub like the Fusio Scrub by Kerastase can do. Fusio Scrub offers a powerful combination of exfoliation and essential oils that remove the grime while maintaining a healthy scalp. It acts as an immersive hair care solution that deeply cleanses the scalp and keeps it hydrated.
