The skin is the largest organ in the body and consumers are turning to the personal grooming sector for the solutions on how to care for their skin and scalp. There is an increased demand for knowledge in the areas of advanced skin care treatments and hair loss. This course will give hairdressers, barbers, therapists and beauty professionals more advanced knowledge, confidence and a deeper understanding of skin and hair science.
This webinar-based, interactive lecture series with fact-based assessment will comprise of approx. 30 hours of teaching covering a fundamental and comprehensive knowledge base of skin and hair follicle biological sciences.
The two lecture blocks (skin; Hair follicle) will cover introduction to the biology of a) skin and b) its appendages (i.e. hair, nail), and where relevant, will include variations with gender, age, geographic ancestry etc.
It will not focus specifically on overt clinical pathology of the skin but will refer to common mild physiological changes (e.g., male pattern baldness, dry skin, oily skin) be of interest to the personal care market.
It will include a brief description of common skin and hair follicle disorders that clients may present with, and which may first be detected by grooming sector workers (incl. pigmentary lesions). In this way clients can be alerted to and encouraged to seek early medical attention from their GPs.
