Texture Love: In-Person Training Bristol 20/09/2026

Description

We know that for many salons, textured hair still feels like a grey area, too easy to avoid, too complex to approach confidently.

If you’ve ever avoided Afro hair because you were afraid of causing offence or “getting it wrong” this training day is for you.

Learn how to work confidently and respectfully with Afro hair in a hands-on, emotionally intelligent environment that’s designed for professional stylists ready to close the education gap.

Small group, expert-led.
No judgement, no fluff.
Watch. Ask. Practice. Master.

What You’ll Learn

This isn’t surface-level. It’s a deep dive,  in a safe space. You’ll walk away knowing exactly how to approach, consult, care for, and style Afro hair types with clarity and confidence.
