START.ME.UP

Course Outline

Through out this program you will work on classic haircuts that you can bring directly to the salon floor. We encourage you to go over the haircut and techniques you have worked on a minimum of one week before your next class.

On the first day we will also work through correct combing and sectioning, what side of the comb to use and why, hand and body position, how to hold your scissors, briefing on the three shapes and the three techniques commonly used and what they will achieve.

Each day will focus on a classic haircut. You will be guided in building your confidence in cutting and working with correct sectioning patterns.  Through out this salon course you will learn when to use certain shapes and techniques and most importantly understand the reason why. The course is structured in this manner to nurture your awareness of client suitability and how to create the perfect hair cut for your clients. This will give you powerful knowledge to kick start your career.

Delivery

We have established that a class maximum of 10 stylists works best. This allows us to incorporate an individual training experience with an inclusive shared experience. A place where artistic flair is allowed, expression is practiced with newly acquired knowledge in a relaxed, creative and professional environment.
