● Master a repeatable system for achieving long-lasting, movement-filled silk presses.
● Learn how to properly cleanse, prep, and blow-dry to create a healthy foundation.
● Understand product layering, heat control, and how to select the right tools for every texture.
● Practice tension blow-drying, sectioning, and flat iron techniques to ensure consistent, silky results.
