Redefining Natural Hair

Zamora Natural Hair & Braiding Online & Onsite Training Center

Since the start of Zamora Natural Hair and Braiding Training Center young women and men all over the world have reached out to us and shared their dreams of becoming Natural Hair Stylists, Braiders, and Business Owners.  We have helped many of these dreamers turned entrepreneurs by offering

free and low-cost training. But, with student supplies, overhead, and travel fees it has been difficult to help as many students as we would like. Each month thousands of students are looking to get education from our center but only a small percentage can afford the education and supplies they deserve to receive their certifications.

The goal at Zamora is to build poised, self-confident, and knowledgeable Natural Hair Stylists and Business Owners regardless of income, location, or background our mission is helping young people become successful professionals and that's what we intend to do. The Zamora Natural Hair program is an online/onsite course created to fill the need of a growing industry and to maintain industry standards. We offer a variety of learning formats and options, whether you prefer to attend class online or in-person. We have combined the best of both worlds.

"I might not be the ideal client for the hair braiding classes as I'm not a stylist, nor do I own my own salon. My goal was to be able to braid my daughter's hair. I will say paying that much for a class was a little scary, but I was tired of dropping $150 every time I got her hair done. I felt like this was an investment that would pay off in the long run. I'm still not an expert but I just started my journey. McKenzie and Tonika both were wonderful. They calmed my nerves, correcting my braiding mishaps without making me feel terrible, and made me laugh along the way. Tonika took her time showing me everything from fixing my parts to encouraging me to pick up my speed when I was ready. I was so proud of the braids I did on my daughter with Tonika's help I told every person I saw, even a few strangers. Since the class I've braided her hair and her friends hair. No they aren't perfect, but each time I do a style it gets better and faster than before. If my teenage daughter tells me it looks good, then I know it does. No huge knots on top, or slipping braids here! I'm excited to continue to improve braiding with the skills I learned from Tonika."
