What This Course Covers

ABC Cuts is a structured three-day programme covering the core principles of professional haircutting. The course runs theory first, then moves to supervised hands-on practice, and finishes with an assessed practical exam.



Day one covers the theory behind cutting: hair structure, growth patterns, sectioning, tools, and the techniques used across different hair types and lengths. Day two is a full practice session working on models under direct supervision. Day three is your practical exam.
