Our hybrid natural hair, braid, & loc classes are designed for all learning styles. Online, hands-on, & work to learn (apprenticeship). You have the option of coming into classes or just logging in live online. To attend an actual class each student must be paid in full so it is best to plan ahead for the dates that coordinate with you being paid in full if you are on a payment plan.
