Hairdressing Models Fake Or Real?

By Dennis E. Price


Hairdressing students are always encouraged to practice their skills as often as they can in their spare time and well as in the college. Books and written work on this particular course will only go so far but on this course training and learning new styles is all the game. New students may be encouraged to work on live or plastic models during their course work. Over the months students will increase their skills by practice.

When pupils first start on this course they are only allowed to practise on plastic heads which are suitable to use as the artificial hair is great to practise on. The students can experiment with various styles and colours on the models while studying hairdressers who are working on people models.

One thing which is not allowed and is cutting hair on a dummy. The reason is simple because any mistakes can not corrected as the hair is not real and will not grow. This is a big disadvantage to other pupils who may require to sit an exam and will not be able to use the dummy with the bad hair cut.

After a student has completed a certain part of the course their instructor's may consider them for training on real models rather than heads alone. This will be completed with great care and skill passed down from hairdressers who have worked in the industry for a long time and know how to handle different hairdressing clients. By using this style of management students can learn of the important ingredients which go into hairdressing.

Hairdressers who are just learning may wish to jump right in and start with live models and may think working on fake heads is not hairdressing do not realise the potential for growth in their confidence when it is their turn to work with their own clients.

Hairdressers of the future will learn to adapt and perfect their hairdressing skills by lots of practice.
