-We make a schedule for weekly learning and instruction. That can be based on your availability, but 12-18 hrs per week is recommended for steady progress. We go over the above topics and have you practice hands-on on a mannequin and live clients. Studying the curriculum can be done on your own time and we can schedule in-person, hands-on training to focus on the skills you will need.

-You will work with all three of our Master Hair Replacement stylists during your apprenticeship - Sara, Rebekah, and Sue. They each have their own style and way of doing things - so in order to maximize your learning, you will observe each of them and choose your preferred approach for when you are on your own. 

-Typically, 1-2 months of the apprenticeship is enough time to have you start working on clients on your own. The cost of the apprenticeship is $2500/month. We request half ($1250) at the beginning, and the other half at completion of each month. 

-You will be provided some tools and practice hair to work with. You will also be able to work on model live clients and observe our stylists working.
