Haircutting Design Elements Cheat Sheets

So, the other day someone was on my website and asked me what I meant by Design Element Cheat Sheets that I include in my new Haircutting e-Course.

And after explaining what they were to her, I thought it would be a good idea to share this information with all my hairdresser friends out there who might be wondering the same thing.

In my new Haircutting e-Course, I teach how to cut 56-Different Haircuts Step-by-Step. There’s over 50-Hours of Video Education in this program, so that means there’s a lot of information for someone to learn and retain.

So, in order to help you remember the various haircuts you learned, and the different techniques used in the program, I have created a series of infographics that I call “Design Elements Cheat Sheets“ which are included in each of the 56-Study Guides that come with the program to serve as a quick reminder of the main elements of each haircut at a glance.

For Example; these Design Elements Cheats Sheets will remind you of the overall Shape of the Design, the type of Bangs that were cut (if any), where the Weightline should developed at the sides and back of the haircut, what Holding Angles were used and all of the Various Cutting Techniques that are used to create that Particular Design.

All of this information from the Video Lessons is on this one simple infographic, and once you learn how to use them, you will have an ironclad method for retaining all of the information from in the course. And these infographics are in PDF form so you can have all this information right on your phone or tablet.

Also, if any of you are looking for a new, fun way to discover the Art of Haircutting or maybe you just need a fresh new approach to haircutting, download my Free e-Book: “The Path to Haircutting Mastery…A Hairdressers Journey into the Art of Haircutting” where I lay out a Step-by-Step Plan of action for how I would recommend anyone learn to cut hair, this is the exact same plan that I would use if I had to do it all over again.  https://www.velascohaircuttingsystem.com/free-ebook

Have a Fantastic and Safe Labor Day Weekend!
