Fast Tracked Program

Our Fast Tracked Program offers a dynamic learning experience that can be completed in 3-6 months, depending on the stylist's current skill set. The program encompasses a comprehensive curriculum, covering color theory, color formulation, consultations, marketing, highlights, foilayage, balayage, redheads, cutting extensions, and more. Each assistant is paired with a dedicated mentor, and classes are conducted every Monday. Assistants are responsible for finding their own models for class, allowing for practical, hands-on learning. Our program also focuses on building and maintaining a clientele. After graduation, stylists receive a part-time chair, while continuing to assist on other days. As their books start to fill up, they gradually drop their assisting days, typically taking 3-6 months to transition fully behind the chair. Join us and accelerate your career with our Fast Tracked Program.
