What it's about

Film hair work is part of the character

Behind every great character is well-chosen hair, facial hair and a wig. At our school we teach the full professional spectrum of hair work: from freehand facial-hair creation to bald caps and full character wigs.

Freehand facial hair

Building moustaches, beards and sideburns directly onto the skin, in film-grade quality.

Applications

Applying and blending bald caps, and nose, ear and other character-shaping pieces.

Wigs and toupees

The basics of making wigs, beards and facial hair, fitting and maintenance.
