The Total Curl Control Program is an 18-week, in-depth journey that teaches you everything about caring for and styling Afro curly hair. From learning the basics of curl health to mastering advanced styling techniques, this program is designed to empower you with the skills and knowledge to transform how you care for Afro curls. Whether you're completely new to caring for curly hair or a stylist looking to deepen your expertise, this program covers it all, step by step.

This program is designed for everyone who wants to understand and care for Afro curly hair at a deeper level. Here’s a breakdown of who can benefit:

Beginners: If you’re just starting your hair care journey, this program is perfect for you. Whether you want to learn how to care for your own curls, help style your children’s hair, or even assist in foster care, hospitals, or specialized care settings, this path will give you the confidence to do so. You don’t need any prior experience; we’ll teach you everything from the ground up

Stylists who have never worked with Afro curly hair: If you’re a stylist who’s never had the chance to work with Afro-textured hair, this program is an excellent way to expand your services and reach new clients. You'll learn how to handle curls with confidence and the right care techniques, so you can offer specialized services for Afro-textured hair.

Stylists with some experience: Maybe you’ve been working with Afro curly hair for a while, but you feel like your techniques need polishing. This program will take you from knowing how to style curls to mastering how to care for them, ensuring your clients walk away with healthy, happy hair that they’ll love—and keep coming back for!

Why does this matter? Afro curly hair requires specific care techniques, and once you understand how to nurture curls, you’ll notice a huge difference in your results, your clients’ satisfaction, and your own confidence. Whether you’re learning for yourself or building your salon business, these skills are essential to mastering Afro curly hair care

The Total Curl Control Program is broken down into three learning paths, each focusing on different levels of knowledge and skill. It’s designed to take you on a journey from basic understanding to mastery of Afro curly hair care.

Path 1: Curl Confidence (6 weeks) – This is where you’ll start if you’re a beginner. You’ll learn the essentials of curl patterns, product selection, and foundational techniques like hydration and moisturization. Think of this as building your foundation—you’ll come away with all the knowledge you need to confidently care for curls

Path 2: Core Curl Techniques (6 weeks) – This path takes you deeper. You’ll learn more advanced techniques, from creating long-lasting styles to solving common challenges like frizz, shrinkage, and dryness. You’ll also dive into protective styles and braid maintenance, focusing on keeping hair healthy over time.

Path 3: Expert Curls (6 weeks) – By the time you reach Path 3, you’ll be ready to tackle advanced styling techniques, including creating sophisticated styles for special events. You’ll learn to perfect your skills and deliver professional-level results that last

You’re welcome to take just one path if you’re looking to focus on a particular area of expertise. However, to gain the full certification for the Total Curl Control Program, you’ll need to complete all three paths. Each path builds on the last, so while you can start with Path 1, you’ll find the most growth and transformation if you continue through all three. Plus, the more you learn, the more confident you’ll feel offering a full range of services for Afro curly hair care, which can also increase your client base and boost your earnings

After completing all three paths in the Total Curl Control Program, you will receive the Certified Afro Curly Hair Specialist certification. This certification is recognized within the industry and shows that you have completed indepth training in Afro curly hair care and styling.

What does this mean for you? This certification gives you the confidence and credibility to market yourself as a specialist in Afro curly hair. Whether you’re opening your own salon, offering personalized services as an independent stylist, or even if you’re simply caring for your own or your family’s hair, this recognition will show that you’ve mastered the art and science of curly hair care.

This program isn’t just about learning hair care techniques—it’s about giving you the skills and confidence to transform your life. Here’s how:

Increase your earnings: Offering specialized services like Afro curly hair care means you can charge more for your expertise. Clients are always on the lookout for someone who truly understands their hair, and when they find you, they’ll be willing to pay more for your knowledge. This certification opens the door to higher rates and more opportunities.

Build your clientele: Clients with Afro-textured hair often struggle to find stylists who know how to care for their curls. By positioning yourself as a Certified Afro Curly Hair Specialist, you’re offering something that not every stylist can provide. This is the kind of expertise that builds loyal clients who keep coming back— and who refer their friends!

Personal confidence: Beyond the professional benefits, this program will also empower you personally. Whether you’re caring for your own curls or your children’s, you’ll feel confident knowing exactly what to do, which products to use, and how to create healthy, beautiful styles that celebrate natural textures.

Each week, you’ll be given a practical assignment that aligns with what you’ve learned in the live session and pre-recorded tutorials. These assignments are designed to be hands-on so you can apply your new skills in real-world scenarios.

Example assignments:

In Curl Confidence: You’ll be asked to demonstrate how you apply the LOC method (Leave-In, Oil, Cream) to hydrate and style Afro curly hair, submitting a video of your process.

In Core Curl Techniques: You’ll practice a protective style like two-strand twists or braids, recording the steps and showing how you keep the hair moisturized and protected.

In Expert Curls: You’ll create a complex updo or special event style on Afro-textured hair, explaining your product choices and styling techniques in a video submission.

To get the most out of this program, you’ll need to dedicate around 6-8 hours per week. Here’s how that breaks down:

Live Sessions: 2-hour weekly live session, where I’ll guide you through the techniques, answer questions, and offer real-time support.

Pre-Recorded Videos: Around 1-2 hours watching the detailed video tutorials at your own pace.

Assignments: 2-3 hours completing your practical assignments, depending on the complexity of the task for that week.

Community Engagement: 1 hour for Q&A and participating in discussions with other learners.

The program is flexible, so if you need to adjust your pace, that’s completely fine. You’ll also have access to the videos for the duration of the course plus a few weeks after, so you can revisit any lessons you need to.

You’ll receive personalized feedback on every assignment you submit. I (Gege) or another expert instructor will review your videos and photos, giving you constructive tips and guidance to improve your technique. We’ll make sure you’re on track and fully confident in the skills you’re building before moving on to the next level.

Yes, you’ll have access to all the pre-recorded videos and course materials for the duration of the program plus a few weeks afterward. This allows you to review the lessons and refine your skills before moving forward. After that, the videos and materials will no longer be available, so we encourage you to make the most of your access while you have it.

No prior experience is necessary for Path 1: Curl Confidence. We’ll guide you from the very beginning, ensuring that you understand the basics of Afro curly hair care before moving into more advanced techniques. However, if you’re joining for Path 2 or 3, it’s recommended that you either complete the previous paths or have some existing knowledge and experience with Afro curly hair care
