Lesson 1

Long layer variation

The first lesson focuses on the long layer variation. Starting with a simple graduated steep angle in the front areas, you’ll fine-tune your over-direction and elevation skills before working on flat layering in the back internal shape. Beautiful, soft and feminine, your long-haired clients will love the texture, body and movement you’ll give them.

Lesson 2

Long graduation with low fringe

The long graduation with low fringe is a youthful salon essential, delivering a manageable yet flowing style that your clients will love. You will begin with a controlled square outline below the shoulders, incorporating internal graduated layering, then build on the cut with graduation throughout the shape.

Lesson 3

Commercial long layered shape

The long-layered shape is a salon classic. You will cover the two possible outcomes: the commercial finish is always popular, but the creative option has a stronger feel, making it perfect for clients willing to embrace a bolder look. Both results will deliver layering, graduation and over-direction that provides body and movement.

Lesson 4

Long uniform layer

This lesson is all about the long, uniformed layer. This is a perfectly symmetrical look, from pivoting sections to body positioning and perfect head and finger placement, you’ll build your technical skills and learn how to distribute internal and external weight to achieve this soft, face-framing classic hairstyle.

Lesson 5

Increased layer

A popular long-layering technique that you’ll come back to time after time. Focusing on increased layering, this is a style that includes classic layering techniques and over-direction.
