Program of the Week: Cosmetology

How To: Trim and Style Hair

Hair is known to be worth great value. Whether it's short, long, dark or light, hair is the biggest identity of a person. It is also the most purest form of protein in the world, which provides the brain vitamin D, energy, phosphorus, and metals.

From the Cosmetology Program at Maricopa Skill Center, student Shayquan Hollman aka Say Say, demonstrates a perfect method in maintaining a client's hair by trimming and styling it.

Items Needed:
Shampoo and Conditioner
Olive Moisturizing Sheen Spray
Hair Dryer
Comb
Hair Clips
Flat Iron Protection
Thermal Styling Spray
Flat Iron
Hair Cutting Sheers
Hair and Scalp Conditioner 

1. Say Say first assists Tonya to the shampoo bowl to give her a good hair wash using shampoo and conditioner.




 

 2. After drying from the towel, Say Say sprays Olive Moisturizing Sheen Spray as a heat protectant before blow-drying Tonya's hair.

3. In order to dry her hair completely, Say Say parts each section with a hair clip. She then points the blow dryer down her hair with constant movements. 

4. After drying Tonya's hair, Say Say sprays a Flat Iron Protectant and a Thermal Styling Spray. Since Tonya's hair is coarse, it is crucial to straighten her hair with a hot iron so it can be combed into place with the ends lining up neatly when being cut.

5. Elaine Balderas, Cosmetology Instructor, guides Say Say in the most successful methods in hair-trimming.

6. Elaine presents the complete hair-trimming.

7. As a final touch, Say Say applies Hair and Scalp Conditioner before curling the ends of Tonya's hair to give her a voluminous look.

Voilà!
