Welcome to Haircuts at Home: Gentleman's Cut

I designed this course for families that want to save money and cut their kids hair at home.

Most parents with children know it can be a struggle taking your kids to get their haircut, especially boys. They might be rowdy and super distracted, won't hold still and the hair cut doesn't turn out right. On top of that, cutting hair can get really expensive if you are having to do it every month. 

At the end of this course, my hope is that you can:

  • Give handsome hair cuts

  • Be confident in your newly developed skill

  • Have pride in your first haircut

  • Save time & money

I have ten plus years experience in hair cutting and want to share that with you. The Gentleman's Cut is an easy one to learn and great for beginners. I will take you through step by step instructions to help you gain the confidence you need to recreate this haircut at home.
