I
want to take this course!
|
| This course is for the professional natural hairstylist or cosmetologist
who wishes to add hair extensions to their repertoire.
Hair extension is an art that is both beautiful and useful for normal
wear, theater, formal occasions such as proms, as well as hair replacement.
This course covers a variety of methods, and will allow the professional
to skip the theory and get straight to the techniques. For this reason,
if you're not a pro yet, it is recommended that you take Advanced
African Hairstyles first. |
