A strong blow wave lets great hairdressers standout
4-Hour Practical Education Session
This is not a quick refresher.
This is a confidence-building blow-wave bootcamp designed to help apprentices deliver consistent, polished, salon-ready finishes every time.
Blow-drying is one of the most visible skills on the salon floor, and often the one apprentices feel the least confident with. This session focuses on consultation, shape, sectioning and attention to detail, so apprentices understand why they’re doing what they’re doing and can confidently replicate it back in the salon.
Hosted in my hair home, Have A Nice Day Hair, in the heart of St Kilda.
