Two days of hands-on lash lift, brow lamination and tint training, taught in person at Glam Lab PDX.
Every woman teaching our in-person specialty trainings is a woman of color who specializes in the exact training and certification she offers. That is on purpose.
It matters that Black and brown women are in the room and taking the lead on these curriculums. "Multicultural" and "melanin rich skin" cannot become a marketing scheme for people to profit off the words. Real melanin rich skin and textured hair education adds what has been missing from beauty programs, and it is built and taught by the people who know it firsthand.
The framework of cultural intelligence is part of every training we teach, so skill and respect are learned together.
Sign the petition asking the Oregon Board of Cosmetology to require melanin rich skin and textured hair education, with hands-on client work before graduation.
