Barbering
Full-service men's barbershops and male-focused salons are popping up everywhere, meeting the growing demand for a comfortable, male-oriented space where men can get a great haircut or color, cover the gray, and experience the time-honored tradition of a relaxing, rejuvenating shave.
Our barbering program features hair cutting; chemical work (including coloring and perms); men’s shaving and grooming; basic skin care; and hairpiece design, fitting, and maintenance in a three-phase program we call Core, Adaptive, and Creative.
Core
Learn the rules!
In this introductory course, you'll learn the core foundations that will let you confidently begin working on guests, and your Learning Leaders will help you blend professional skills with personal development.
Adaptive
Apply the rules!
Building on the skills you learned in Core, this intermediate level teaches the value of time management, retailing, and the art of successful communication.
Creative
Expand the rules!
This final phase takes you through advanced hairdressing and chemical work. During your last months and weeks toward graduation, you'll spend your time in high gear, preparing yourself for your future salon career.
