Braidology is our signature training program at Shear Creations Workforce Development Academy, offering hands-on education in natural hair braiding across three progressive levels — Braidology 101, 102, and 103.
No prior experience is required for Braidology 101. It's designed specifically for beginners learning the fundamentals from scratch.
101 covers the foundations of braiding, 102 builds intermediate skills and client-readiness, and 103 focuses on advanced mastery, business skills, and leadership pathways.
