Stacey Broughton teaches a basic hairdressing course on a hairdressing training head covering two fundamental techniques that all hairdressers must master - layering and graduation.

Layers gives the illusion of length and volume, while graduation adds bulk and weight to the hair. These two techniques are at the heart of every haircut and Stacey clearly explains how and when they should be used, with each lesson building on the previous to give you full understanding.
