For far too long, textured hair has been all but an afterthought in the beauty industry. From hair overlooked trends and techniques to hard-to-find products and styling tips, people with textured strands have been woefully underrepresented in the hair world. Over the last few years, brands and beauty experts alike have begun to give textured hair, styles, and products the attention it truly deserves, but there is still at least one place the hair world can really use some texture love: beauty school. In its mission to achieve true texture equality and begin to help to solve this issue, Mizani has announced its latest venture, The Texpert Academy Online.
Many hairstylists report finishing their beauty school education without having taken even one class about how to care for and style textured hair. Not only is textured hair education not typically included in many beauty schools, but classes that teach how to care for and style textured hair are also often hard to find or expensive. Education is key in the journey for true diversity in the beauty world because that product you’ve been lusting after won’t be of much use if your stylist can’t teach you how to use it.
Mizani is helping to fill the gap in textured hair education and make it more accessible than ever before with its Texpert Academy.
“The Mizani Texpert Academy’s mission is to create a comprehensive and accessible digital texture curriculum that ensures salons and professionals are equipped to take on any texture that walks through their doors,” the brand says.
Whether you’re a stylist looking to learn the fundamentals, the secret to cutting textured hair, brush up on your braiding skills, or dabble in color, the Texpert Academy has got you covered with affordable classes (prices range from $30 to $100) that you can attend from the comfort of your own home!
Classes begin in early July, and registration is now open. Click here to sign up and learn more.
