Assessment

For Melbourne campuses

Assessment tasks will be designed to reinforce and extend knowledge and skill competence within set and controlled parameters in accordance with each unit’s learning outcomes and performance criteria requirements, including the setting of work based practical application tasks designed to provide evidence of competence outcomes, within periodic and scheduled timelines.

Students will be expected to demonstrate the following required skills:

  • consult with at least six (6) clients and complete a pre-service analysis covering the following characteristics to design and recommend appropriate long hair up-styles: facial features and bone structure; natural hair type; hair texture; growth patterns; movement; length and structure of haircut;
  • style and finish hair for the above six clients to their satisfaction, and complete at least four of these long hair up-styles cumulatively across the clients: braids; classic French rolls; twists; classic chignons; donut roll with padding; vintage rolls;
  • use these tools and techniques, cumulatively across the suite of clients, to prepare hair for up-styling: blow drying using brushes to create curl, wave or volume; blow drying using brushes to straighten or smooth hair; applying hot rollers to set hair, and;
  • use these finishing techniques, cumulatively across the suite of clients: brushing; dry moulding; placing; backcombing; smoothing over backcombing; securing hair using bands or pins not visible in finished design; applying fixing products.
