[@cadencenavaa]

Also we were taught to rough dry the full head before smooth drying the section we will curl !! This way, the hair is dry for foil highlights and relaxer services. Is this the correct way ? Is it okay for the hair to be wet during the chemical section ? Thank you for your time !!

[@GlamAndBeyond]

I say do the way you were trained to avoid confusion I promise you will do great 😊

[@cadencenavaa]

Hello Ms.Yari !! I take my test tomorrow !! So my instructors used to teach us to clean up,disinfect,sanitize, and keep our bag on table before raising our hands and THEN disposing of the bag into our kit. The way you do it in the videos, you put your bag into your kit BEFORE raising your hand. Which is the proper way ? 🥺

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Nothing should be on the table before raising hand, everyone teaches different not to say one is right and one is wrong but the way you see me doing everything in the videos with minor changes is what our students are trained to do.

[@lisalee330]

Passed thank you so much for your videos they helped me so much ❤❤

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Congratulations Lisa 🎉🎊

[@ginaalanizthornton7391]

Hello Yary...could you please tell me where you purchased your shortie haircutting cape and shortie chemical cape? It seems more practical to use them instead of the standard capes that are way too long, big and bulky to use for the state board practical in my opinion. And thank you so much for all the videos that you make, you explain and demonstrate things so well, which helps those of us who haven't taken the state board practical to feel more confident and to successfully pass.

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Hello! 😊 I purchased them at a beauty supply store, the beauty supply stores that sell to the public and not only to licensed professionals they usually have them . Thanks for supporting the channel.💜

[@ginaalanizthornton7391]

Ok, thank you 🤗

[@ginaalanizthornton7391]

​@@GlamAndBeyondok, I know of a couple near the Houston area. Can you tell me the specific store you purchased yours at and also what are they called since they are not the standard length of haircutting/chemical capes? I didn't see them at Sally's Beauty Supply. Thank you!

[@LaurenGutierrez-ob7zi]

Hi so we don’t have to blow dry the whole head before doing the on and off base curl ? I take my test on Wednesday your all I have been watching 🥲😊

[@GlamAndBeyond]

You do exactly what I did, you blow dry only one section (1 quadrant)

[@brianaolvera8318]

Also for all the hair services can I somehow use the same cape? I know you used 3 different capes for each service

[@GlamAndBeyond]

You are going to have to use at least 2 because for the haircut I highly recommend switching it .

[@tanyamurillo9756]

Hi I love your videos, is the eyelash section not necessary anymore?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Correct they took it out last year

[@desidiana6548]

Hi, question on draping from previous haircut service. After haircut, Moving on to the perm, Can you continue to use that same cape for the rest of the following services by replacing the neck strip with towel cape towel.. or would you say have a new cape for each bag ?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Our students use the same cape for facial and waxing. They than change the cape into a Haircutting cape with neck strip for the haircut section. Followed by changing into new towel cape towel for the chemical service, permanent wave , blowdry etc. For those sections they only change the top towel, but keep the same towel that’s underneath and the cape. Hope that helps. Also when in doubt you can change capes for each section if you prefer. Some students use disposable capes , it’s really up to you, as long as you are draping and making sure nothing is soiled.

Hi! I have a question. I graduated from Visible Changes University in 1997. WhatsApp mannequin should I purchase? Vacation hair, or black peoples hair. My first state board, I used cousin. Respectfully.

[@GlamAndBeyond]

For your state board practical consider taking something like this .. you want it to be able to take heat because you will be using a curling iron on it .

[@GlamAndBeyond]

It can be precut

[@savanhaostler5808]

You leave it alone . They only want you do 1 quadrant

[@melissadelavega7286]

Are we able to touch out on and off base curls ? Like form them a bit after ?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

I don’t see anything wrong with adjusting for a second or two , you are simply not allowed to use any types of clips or products to hold them in place .

[@arylenebenitez7536]

Do you know if they take points off if we touch the blow dryer nozzle to the blow dryer brush when we are blow drying the hair ?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

I don’t think so but for sure use a nozzle 🙂

[@brittanystephens665]

I have a question on the perm section. Should I be using protective cream during this section? If so when do I add that in. I have it on my master list but I noticed it’s not on your bag video or on this one. I’m fine not using it, just wasn’t sure if it would be a point off.

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Our students do the protective cream on the chemical sections the relaxers and highlight not sure if you have seen that video yet. We do not use it during the perm section , but if your school trained you to use it during perm you can go for it 🙂

Thanks again!!

Hello, first of all thank you so much for these videos! I have a question I am taking my test next week in Houston Tx, and want to know if I can use any curling iron for my practical. My school said it had to be my marcel but my hands are so small and I have trouble wrapping my fingers around it. I want to know that I can use a clamp curling iron?

[@luzesparza7284]

Like the one you are using on your video

[@GlamAndBeyond]

You should be able to use a regular curling iron .

[@ginaalanizthornton7391]

Hi, I too have small hands and the standard Marcel that came with my kit is way too big. I purchased a smaller marcel curling iron at Armstrong Beauty supply and it fits my small hands so well.

[@MaddisonReid]

Do we raise our hand for them to watch us saturate and check the perm when we unroll? Or just wait until after we are don’t to raise our hand?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Usually they tell the students to raise their hand to show “saturation and test curl” once you do that and they see you, you than proceed to unrolling and disinfection clean up process just like I did in video .

[@Sasha.m0nique]

Hello, at my school, we were taught to blowdry the whole head, but you did only one quadrant. Blowdrying the entire head isn't necesarry?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

No it’s not necessary, the instructions say one quadrant.

[@lifewithmaliyahhh]

I take my test this week and I don’t have stretched cotton . Is there anything i can use to substitute this ? If not where can i buy it ?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

Sally’s beauty supply sells a small box of cotton it’s in a box not a bag. 🙂

[@Stephanie-ts6uk]

Once we are done with the curls, do we raise our hand before cleaning or after ?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

You always raise hand after disinfecting just like shown in the video 😊

do we have to do towel cape towel for every section ? i was taught for the blow dry and haircut to use a neck strip , is that ok too ? i’m taking my test tomorrow !

In my opinion 3/4 is good size to take

[@prisicillagutierrez5700]

Does my curling iron and blowdryer have to be in the bag for the section or can i leave them in my kit and take them out when the section starts?

[@GlamAndBeyond]

They do not need to be in the bag.

[@joseyyyy]

Thanks!

[@deziraechavarria2230]

Do we raise our hand to show the test curl or we just do it before we raise our hands

[@GlamAndBeyond]

You raise your hand to demonstrate saturation and usually they tell you to demonstrate a test curl as well but sometimes they don’t

[@julianakoz9568]

Hello! Do you have to keep the bags labeled for each section to put the items back in to throw in the trash bag after the section? Or after you take everything out can you just throw the bag away and then throw everything in trash instead of putting it back in the bag.

[@GlamAndBeyond]

You can throw everything in the trash if you would like . Everyone does things slightly different not all students are trained for the practical exactly the same, I always recommend student do as they were shown by their instructor, my video is a simple visual to give an idea of what to expect and our personal students use to review and they have all passed ☺️

I ask because a lot of the info you are providing is different than what I just learned in Cosmo School & in the Milady Cosmo book, Like this drapping for a blowout should only be neck strip and then cap because it’s not a chemical service.
