A hairdressing course that sets you apart

Alongside the salon, Maria Bonita Hair is a specialised training institute. We believe real expertise should be shared. In The Brazilian Hair Masterclass you learn the Brazilian techniques that are increasingly in demand internationally, from colour to care.

The course is practical and personal. By default it is one-to-one, so all the attention goes to you. Sometimes a small group forms; even then, the guidance stays intensive.

Who is the masterclass for?

  • Junior hairdressers who want to specialise from the start.
  • Experienced stylists who want to expand their services with Brazilian techniques.
  • Salon owners who want to give their team a speciality of their own.

What you will learn

Advanced colour techniques and balayage – including Brazilian methods such as morena iluminada, and how to match colour to skin tone and hair type.

The secrets of the perfect Brazilian blow-dry – the escova technique for shine, movement and volume.

Keratin treatments and hair care – from hair analysis and product choice to safe, professional application and aftercare advice for your clients.

On completion you receive the MBH certificate from Maria Bonita Hair.

Keratin course: learn to do keratin treatments

Looking for a keratin course? Keratin is a core part of The Brazilian Hair Masterclass. You learn to perform keratin treatments the Brazilian way: from hair analysis and product choice to application, blow-drying and sealing, plus the aftercare advice you give your clients.

You practise with personal guidance, one-to-one by default. Want to focus on keratin? Mention it in the introduction: we talk through your goals and match the programme to your level. On completion you receive the MBH certificate. See how a keratin treatment in our salon works.
