Hair Care

Students learn to select shampoos, conditioners, and balms, understanding their composition and pH levels. They also receive training in scalp massage techniques.

Why is this important? If a master barber lacks skills in choosing the right hair care products, a client’s hair can become damaged, lose volume, and shine. On the other hand, a professional can restore hair to a healthy state with proper care products.

Hair Structure Analysis

Instructors teach how to analyze a client’s hair quality. This knowledge helps students in selecting the appropriate haircutting, styling methods, and coloring products.

Why is this lesson important? Styling and haircutting methods vary for porous curly hair compared to straight hair. The choice of dye and lightening method also depends on the hair’s quality and color.
