AFRO MASTERCLASS

This course has been developed for the higher learner to explore the amazing structure of afro hair. You will learn different cutting strategies and techniques that will enable you to fade and create the most symmetrical styles possible. You will conquer the elasticity and spring of afro hair and learn how to tame the growth patterns. At the end of this course you will realise that such strong dense hair (that was once intimidating) is your stepping stone to creating endless geometric shapes.
