Practical Experience On The Clinic Floor
Weeks One Through Forty-Four:
Students will be on the clinic floor each day and will be assigned various services as they become available. Students will be assisted until they become more proficient. Instructors will take note of their progress and grade them accordingly. During the course, students will learn to do tapered haircuts, shaves, facials, hairstyles, colors, bleaches, and permanent waves.
Final Exam:
Students will be given review work as needed from results of finals. Students will be given a practical exam which emulates the State Board Apprentice Exam. Students needing extra work in taper haircutting and/or shaving, as indicated on the practical exam, will be assigned extra practice. Senior students, assessed ready to pass the state exam, will be permitted to work on the clinic floor assisting others in practical work.
