Create layered haircut structures

Provider: OPTEQ

This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to design and perform layered haircuts that enhance shape, movement and texture across a range of hair types and lengths. It covers client consultation, analysis of hair growth patterns and face shape, selection of cutting techniques (including sectioning, elevation and over-direction), safe tool handling, and finishing methods. Learners will develop the ability to create consistent, balanced results while maintaining hygiene, client comfort and professional salon standards. The unit aligns with Australian hairdressing practice and supports job-ready performance in commercial salon environments.
