Evaluation

From the first lesson to the last, I have loved every wig lesson I have been to. Over the past year, and up until now, I have really gained a love for hair and everything about it. When I first started uni, my passion was special effects but I have grown and with that, my tastes and preferences have changed too. I'm truly over the moon that I got a place on this course this year. 

 I believe I have gained a lot of new skills from doing this sub-section course as it's something that's become a passion to me. I've learnt how to knot a moustache and how to create other facial features such as eyebrows, beards and sideburns. When signing up for this course, I was lead to believe that we would be making a full wig, so obviously I was naturally disappointed when we were told otherwise. However, after knotting, cutting, curling and styling one moustache, I've so glad and really understand as to why we didn't! Other skills I have gained include era hair techniques, how to work with synthetic and lace wigs, and also how to do a basic hair trim cut.  

Obviously there is always going to be room for improvements. However, I really believe that hair has been my strong point this year and I don't think I made many mistakes, without sounding big headed! I have learnt how to manipulate hair in a better way, to work quicker, and to also achieve a better outcome. The areas that I'm lacking in I think the most is learning to be firmer with the hair. I have been told I have gentle hands. 

Overall, I have enjoyed every aspect of this course. There has been nothing that I've not liked! Which is a first! I really feel comfortable working with hair and I can see myself following a career path in this area of work. Although I'm still not sure what I want to do with hair yet, this course has really helped me to decided.
