LOOK and beautyVISION - Day 1

Watch top educators solve real-world hairdressing problems live on stage. This course covers building a textured mullet and personalizing a men's haircut to fit the client's head shape.

About the course

LOOK and beautyVISION - Day 1 is a unique recording of live demonstrations from one of the biggest hairdressing stages in Poland. Watch four leading Connected Hair educators - Anastasiia Verbitskaya, Kacper Trzaskowski, Vadim Futowsky, and Kamil Cesarski - interpret trends and solve real problems on models' heads under live trade-show conditions, with no cuts or edits.

This course takes you through four distinct working philosophies. Anastasiia Verbitskaya shows how to build a textured mullet on natural waves, working with the cowlick and creating movement using a round shape. Kacper Trzaskowski carries out an in-depth head analysis, explaining why he chooses layers at the back and graduation on the sides to control sticking-up hair. You'll also see Vadim Futowsky's geometry-based work, along with Kamil Cesarski's square layers in disconnection on curly hair.

In this course, you'll see

  • How to build a textured mullet, working with vertical sections and redirection into a round shape
  • A full client head analysis - from face shape and the occipital bone to the mastoid processes - and how to choose techniques based on it
  • Practical reasoning for when to use layers (lightness) versus graduation (control) within the same haircut
  • How geometry (triangle, circle, square) is used in men's haircutting to build a precise form
  • The square layers in disconnection technique as a way to define curly hair without losing length
  • Diffuser styling to enhance natural texture and build volume with intention

This course is for any hairdresser who wants to see how theory and precise techniques hold up in a dynamic, live environment. It's a chance to observe, in one place, the thought process and craft of four different experts who explain every move on stage - giving you ready-to-use solutions for your own salon.
