Curly Coily Cut & Style with Gissell

Curly and coily cutting and styling, taught live by a specialist. For the stylist who's ready to stop turning textured clients away and become the one they drive across town for.

Let's be honest. You can cut a precision bob with your eyes closed. But when a 3C to 4C client sits in your chair, something tightens. School barely covered this. The cut looks perfect wet, then it dries, it shrinks, the shape goes sideways, and you're bracing for the text that says "it doesn't look like it did in the salon."

So a lot of stylists quietly send curly and coily clients somewhere else. And every single one of them is money, loyalty, and a whole word-of-mouth network walking out the door. Because the truth is, curly and coily clients are the most loyal guests you will ever have. When someone finally gets their hair, they don't just rebook, they tell everyone. Learn this once and it pays you back for the rest of your career.

This is the class that gets you there.

Gissell Gutierrez (@gissellcurls) takes one live 3C to 4C model from consultation to finished style, and talks you through every decision along the way. You'll learn:

How to read curl pattern, density, porosity, and shrinkage before you ever pick up your shears

A cutting method that looks right dry, not just wet, so your client loves it at home and not just in your chair

Styling and product layering that actually delivers definition and moisture on coily hair

How to consult, set expectations, and price the service so you're paid what the skill is worth

You'll walk out able to say yes to any texture that books with you, with the confidence to back it up.

This is a live demo and look and learn. You'll watch one model start to finish. No hands-on cutting by attendees, just a clear view of exactly how it's done, inside a real working luxury salon.

Who it's for Licensed stylists and cosmetology students who are done avoiding textured hair and ready to specialize.

Seats are limited and early pricing goes up as they fill. The stylist who books today pays the least and gets the most. One new curly regular covers the cost of this seat many times over.
