No, none at all. The course teaches you from the ground up: first you understand the structure of the hair, and from there we move step by step to the complete technique.

If you are just starting out, we recommend this order: first the course, then the membership to learn step by step how to use our professional straighteners and treatments.

You have 60 days of access counted from the day you buy the course. Within that time you can watch the lessons as many times as you need, at your own pace and from anywhere.

Do you have a refund policy?

Yes, and we recommend reading it before you buy. In short: courses and memberships are digital products with immediate access, so payments are non-refundable.
