Hot Tools: The Foundation of Great Hairstyling

Blow Dryers

A high-quality blow dryer is a must-have in your hairstyling arsenal. For professionals, investing in a powerful, professional-grade blow dryer can dramatically improve the quality of your blowouts. While budget-friendly options are available, remember that the performance of your tools reflects directly on the services you provide.

Straighteners

While not used daily in my routine, a good straightener is essential for achieving sleek styles and tackling challenging hairline areas. For those interested in a versatile tool, look for straighteners that offer smooth gliding and consistent heat.

Curling Irons

Curling irons are pivotal for creating everything from tight curls to beachy waves. Consider the size of the barrel when choosing your iron, as this will affect the style of curl you can achieve. In our hairstyling classes, we emphasize and demonstrate the use of different barrel sizes and how it can create different effects.

Hair Care Products: Enhancing Your Professional Hairstyling

Holding Sprays

A robust holding spray is vital for long-lasting styles. Choose sprays that offer a balance between hold and manageability to avoid stiff, unworkable hair during your hair workshop sessions.

Moisturizers and Prepping Sprays

Moisturizing products are crucial for preventing damage and maintaining hair health, especially when using hot tools. In our hairstyling workshop, we teach students to select the right product based on hair type and desired outcome.

Volume and Texture Enhancers

Introduce products like volume powders and texture sprays in your hairstyling sessions. These products allow for creative styling, offering your clients or beauty professionals the tools needed to achieve modern, textured looks.

Our journey through the essentials of hairstyling showcases just how diverse and dynamic this field can be. Whether you’re enhancing your skills in a hair workshop, offering hairstyling services, or conducting hairstyling classes at a hair school, the right tools and knowledge are crucial. Equip yourself with quality products and the expertise to use them, ensuring every hairstyle you create is a masterpiece.

My Hairstyling courses helped several junior stylists in Vancouver to kick-start & turbo-boost their career in the wedding industry. If you’re fresh our of hair school, you probably didn’t learn much about styling yet. If you’re a Makeup Artist, you’d double your revenue if you could also start offering hairstyling services to your clients. The career as a bridal hairstylist is a journey of much fulfillment and great revenue! I promise you, with some practice and great motivation, your investments in hair education will pay off in no time!
