The full list of products and tools used, with high-end and budget options

We are one of the very few academies in UK teaching Russian hairstyles. We do not just demonstrate the hairstyle but help you to learn it through practice. All hair pieces, padding, hair products, and equipment will be provided for students to use during the course in their practice sessions. You will be given full details of all products and tools used, both high end and cheaper alternatives. A lot of information is covered therefore students should take suitable notes and photographs to assist in further practice after the course. Training heads / mannequins, equipment and products will be provided for students to use during the course. We use training heads with human hair for demonstration and practice as It is not practical to use live models as multiple hairstyles are taught on the same day . Academies that use live models are only able to teach 1 hairstyle, or maximum 2 hairstyles per day, as continuous backcombing and application of strong hair products on a live model would cause severe damage to the hair.

Certificate. The Russian hairstyling course is accredited by the Guild of Beauty Therapists, one of the largest trade bodies in the beauty industry. An accredited certificate is much more valuable than a certificate given by most bridal hair and makeup academies as accredited certificates are nationally recognised by the beauty industry. This enables you to apply for trade cards giving exclusive access to specialised hairstyling products and equipment.

Paying. Pay the deposit online to book your place, then pay the balance by the first day of the course. Terms and conditions.

Questions

All questions and answers

How do I book a place?

Choose a course and a date, then pay the deposit online. Your place is confirmed as soon as the payment goes through, and you will get a confirmation email with your booking reference.

When do I pay the rest of the fee?

The balance is due by the first day of your course. Full payment is taken before the course starts.

Can I cancel or change my dates?

Deposits and fees can be refunded if you cancel within 14 days of paying, less card processing fees and a £50 administration fee, as long as the course has not started. After 14 days we cannot accept cancellations, unless the course is not as advertised. A change of dates is treated as a cancellation, although we may allow a change at our discretion, with a fee of up to £50 each time. The full terms and conditions apply.

None of the dates suit me. Can I come on other days?

Possibly. Other dates can sometimes be arranged if you give us enough notice. Use the enquiry form on the course page and tell us which days work for you.

Do I need any experience?

No. Most of our makeup, hair, and hair and makeup courses are suitable for complete beginners as well as working artists who want to update their skills. The 2-day and 3-day Russian hairstyling courses are for stylists who already have some Russian hairstyling experience. We recommend starting with the 1-day introductory Russian course or the 4-day bridal hairstyling course.

How many students are in a class?

No more than three, so you get plenty of individual attention throughout.
