Step into the world of classic cuts, fresh fades, and timeless style! Barbering introduces students to the art and science behind the barber’s chair. From learning the fundamentals of anatomy and hygiene to practicing real-world skills like hair cutting, shaving, shampooing, and styling, students will build a strong foundation in both theory and hands-on technique. Along the way, they’ll explore topics like barber law, skin care, massage, and the proper use of professional tools.
Students will also begin earning the required hours toward their Illinois barbering license, putting them on the path to a professional career. Barbering 1 is the first step in the journey, preparing students for Barbering 2, where their skills (and style) get even sharper.
