About our Hairdressing Skills School
Our Training Elements
WASHING HAIR
Washing a client’s hair before styling ensures that the hair is clean and free of styling products, dirt, and oil, this means the hair will be easier to manage during a hair cut or treatment. Hair washing involves using the correct products, washing techniques, massaging of the scalp, water temperature management and ensuring hair is rinsed thoroughly.
HAIR CUTTING
Haircutting is a skill that requires time, practice, and patience to master. Before masterfully executing every haircut, you must acquire a set of necessary skills such as shaving, shearing, trimming, layering, framing, and combing.
BLOW DRYING
A blow dryer can cause damage to hair if not used properly. Fortunately, all that is needed is some practice, patience, and the right tools to get your hair looking fabulous. Our hairdressers learn the basic techniques which allow them to express the client’s sense of style while maintaining the health of the hair.
QUALITY PRODUCTS
Regardless of texture, colour or style, there’s one thing that everyone wants: hair that looks healthy, shiny and beautiful. Our hairdressers learn about industry quality products and how to apply the various styling treatments.
HAIR COLOURING
Hair colouring involves the use of chemicals capable of removing, replacing, and covering up pigments naturally found inside the hair shaft. Our hairdressers practice various colouring techniques such as highlighting, dip-dying, ombre and colour melting.
STRAIGHTENING
Straightening is a hair styling technique used since the 1890s involving the flattening and straightening of hair to give it a smooth, streamlined and sleek appearance. If the correct method is not applied, it can cause damage. Our students spend hours practicing and using industry-standard heat protectant sprays.
