Educational Requirements: This course is designed for professionals who already have a cosmetology or natural hairstyling education. Whether your training was formal or practical doesn't matter, but you will need to have a reasonable level of skill in order to execute the styles taught here properly. There is a screening exam associated with the first lesson that will test your knowledge. If you don't pass it with a good score, you will be strongly encouraged to take Advanced African Hairstyles or acquire knowledge in sanitation, salon maintenance, hazardous chemical handling, hair care and hair and scalp anatomy first, and then return. |
