Cutting Edge Curls: Look and Learn
A free, hands-on Look and Learn for licensed hairstylists. Watch a full curly cut and style on a live model, then leave knowing how to consult, cut, product and diffuse curls with confidence.



Three different curl patterns, three different cuts. Real work from our team, and exactly the range we will break down in class.
What You Will Learn
Two hours, one live model, and five things you can use in your chair the very next day.
Curly Consultation
How to assess curly hair and talk to curly clients so you both want the same result before you ever pick up shears.
Analyzing Curls
Reading curl pattern, porosity and texture, and why the same cut behaves differently on two heads of hair.
Cutting the Right Shape
Curl-friendly cutting technique that builds a flattering shape instead of fighting the natural pattern.
Products That Work
Which products actually perform on curls, how much to use, and the application order that makes the difference.
Diffusing
Getting a smooth, frizz-free, defined finish with a diffuser instead of a cloud of frizz.
Who This Class Is For
This class is open to licensed hairstylists only. You will be asked for your license number when you register.
- Stylists who turn curly clients away because they are not sure how to cut texture
- Stylists who can cut curls but struggle to make the finish look consistent
- Newer stylists who want structured technique instead of trial and error
- Anyone who wants to add curly clients to their book
