Face Framing & The Money Piece
The Money Piece isn’t just a trend — it’s a timeless technique that defines modern colour work.
This course teaches you how to craft perfectly framed brightness around the face, enhancing every client’s natural features while maintaining harmony, depth, and softness.

Sectioning & Placement – Create clean, balanced partings and know how far to take your brightness for depth, dimension, and precision.
Foiling & Application Techniques – Explore micro-weaves, baby-lights, and back-to-back foils for everything from subtle glow to bold pop.
