Key Benefits
These resources support delivery of SHBHREF002 Straighten and relax hair with chemical treatments by helping learners review hair reformation history, analyse curl, porosity and condition, identify contraindications and recommend suitable treatments. Trainers and assessors can use them to structure activities around selecting relaxers and matching neutralisers, applying fillers and product in a predetermined pattern, timing development, smoothing, rebonding, rinsing and neutralising.
