Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello, and welcome! I’m excited to be your instructor. With over 20 years of experience in braiding and a decade of working with clients professionally, I’m here to share my knowledge and help you master the art of braiding.
I graduated from cosmetology school 17 years ago, and this foundation in hair care and styling has fueled my passion for teaching. I also hold a degree in Human Services, which shapes my approach to creating a supportive, inclusive environment for all my students.
As a homeschooling parent, I’ve had the unique opportunity to teach my daughters hair styling as part of their curriculum, which has influenced my teaching style. I believe in fostering creativity and offering hands-on learning that encourages each student to grow at their own pace.
In this course, my goal is not only to teach the technical aspects of braiding but also to spark creativity and confidence. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to refine your skills, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
I look forward to sharing my passion for braiding with you!Reviews
