Our Program Levels

Level 1: Core
Level 2: Adaptive
Level 3: Creative
Phase Two

Level 1: Core

Your education begins in Core, a foundational level focused on essential theory, sanitation protocols, and basic technical skills required for all Paul Mitchell School programs. You’ll learn the basics in your theory class, then practice them in the classroom. Working on mannequins and using a variety of simulated and introductory products, you’ll receive close, personal attention from a Learning Leader guiding you every step of the way.

Level 2: Adaptive

Your hands-on learning continues in the classroom and in the clinic classroom—a salon-like environment where you’ll practice and perfect your skills with help from Learning Leaders. The Adaptive level bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application as you start working with live models (or, as we refer to them, service guests) and using professional products. This level is designed to refine both your technical abilities and your interpersonal skills, preparing you to conduct client consultations and create extraordinary guest-service experiences with confidence and competence.

Level 3: Creative

The Creative level helps you explore your creativity, refine your artistry, and master advanced techniques. Under the guidance of a Learning Leader, you’ll work more independently at a pace and in conditions similar to the real world. The focus shifts toward developing your speed, working more efficiently, and maintaining high quality as you work on live models (service guests). You’ll also receive career services support, working alongside you as you build your résumé and portfolio and preparing you to pass the state board exam and step into your career.

Phase Two

Phase Two is an optional advanced learning experience that focuses on hard and soft skill development and is offered during the Creative learning level. Phase Two provides elevated guest service experiences by emphasizing time management and advanced technical skills.

Student Kit

Start your journey on the right foot with all the tools you need in one curated kit. We believe students should use professional equipment from day one. Your professional student kit, included in your institutional charges, is integral throughout your hands-on training and can follow you into salons and beyond after you graduate.

 

*Kit contents may vary by program. Contact us for more information about your student kit.

Digital Toolkit

Your education doesn’t stop when you leave the clinic classroom. With flexible digital access to our exclusive Connecting to My Future curriculum, expert guidance, professional training apps, and additional resources, your education is always close at hand.
