PREPARATION AND REQUIREMENTS

Hairtalk is excited to present virtual certification. To ensure our stylists have an exceptional learning experience, all certifying stylists must be prepared as follows:

● You must be present and engaged with your video on for the entire duration of the event to allow our educators and moderators to verify attendance and evaluate your work during hands-on segments. Plan to join via smartphone, tablet or computer with webcam capabilities. Failure to participate with video/audio on for the full event will result in forfeiting your certificate of completion.
● We recommend you set up a workstation in a room with plenty of natural light. If possible, avoid rooms with only overhead fluorescent lights. Also avoid working with a window directly behind you. This allows the educator and moderator to view and evaluate your work easier.
● Join the Zoom Room at least 15 minutes prior to start time. Your moderator will verify attendance from the Zoom Waiting Room and prepare everyone for an on time start.
● Timed breaks are planned throughout the event, including a 30min lunch when everyone will be able to MUTE ON/VIDEO OFF for a bit of privacy.
● Your training kit will be shipped upon registration. You must inventory your kit immediately upon delivery and advise your hairtalk sales rep of any missing training items. Please detangle and flat iron smooth your mannequin before class begins. Your kit is required to complete certification. Notify your sales rep if your kit is not delivered at least 2 days prior to certification date. We recommend expediting your shipment to ensure on time arrival of your kit as ground shipments have experienced heavy delays due to COVID-19.
● Certifying stylists must provide a valid/active cosmetology license at checkout or shortly thereafter.
