Eligibility
Are you ready?
We accept around twelve students per cohort. The bar is not experience — it is intention. Read what we ask, then apply.

What we ask
01
Eighteen or older.
We work with adults. There is no upper age limit — we have placed stylists in their fifties.
02
Some prior hair work.
Salon experience helps but is not required. What we look for is hands that have practiced — friends, family, your own head — for at least a year.
03
Twelve weeks of presence.
The program meets four days a week, in person, for twelve weeks. There is no remote option. You should be able to commit fully.
04
A reason.
Tell us why. We do not weight credentials heavily. We weight intention.
Bring with you
