The Hair Boss University Alumni Program

The Hair Boss University™ Alumni Program recognises outstanding work from students who have enrolled in Hair Boss University™ “Clean textured Upstyling 101”. They represents those whom Cara would gladly refer clients to because you have implemented the techniques and recreated Cara Clyne’s signature looks with precision & ease.

In order to be accepted as a Hair Boss University™ Alumni you must submit an online application.

You must meet all of the criteria below:

  • You have enrolled for at least 3 months

    • Must be of high quality images & edited
    • Must be your best attempts 
  • Provide BEFORE & AFTER images of your upstyles before you have joined HBU verses what you’ve achieved after joining HBU. This will help Cara see the extent of your improvement and add bonus points to your score 😉. Please put 2 images side by side in 1 photo. (5 bonus points per photo submitted)
    • Maximum 3 before & after photos can be submitted.

Optional:

  • Your official testimony for HBU: (5 bonus points)
    • describing your experience/ what you’ve learned and your transformation through this course.
  • A short 2 minutes video testimony: (10 bonus points)

    • Start by introducing yourself: Your name and what city and county you are from.
    • You may say whatever you feel in your heart.
    • Upload your file on the online form.

Of course you don’t have to. These are totally optional!

But it will be nice for Cara to hear how HBU have impacted you. If someone have made a big impact in our lives, don’t we just want to shout from the roof top of how amazing this person is?! 🤷‍♀️

At the end of the day, Hair Boss University™ want to impact and influence as many hairstylists as possible to improve their skills and make a good living out of what they love doing. And if Cara knows she has made a difference in your life, it will really make her day! Feel free to share anything in your heart.

 

As for the video testimony, we understand not everyone feels comfortable in front of the camera, which is totally fine. But if you would like to share your message visually, we would love to see it. It will also help other prospective students see the changes the current students have had and decide if this course will help them get closer to their career goal.

1. You will receive a certificate to recognise your hard work. Either the Bronze, Silver or Gold level, depending on your score :) 

2. You will receive an exclusive gift from Cara sent to your nominated address. (If your country has border restrictions and we cannot send you the physical gift, we will organise something else for you).

3. You will be listed on our Hair Boss University™ Alumni wall (on HBU website) as one of the outstanding students from the program. This will give you exposure to other industry creatives and potential clients.

Cara will review all application under the same scoring process.

  • Each hairstyle will receive a score out of 10.
  • Each before & after picture submitted will receive 5 points.
  • Based on your before & after pictures, Cara will reward you with more bonus points for the extent of your improvements - scored out of 10.
  • If you choose to include a testimony for HBU you’ll receive 5 bonus points.
  • If you choose to include a 2 minute video testimony for HBU you’ll receive 10 bonus points.

Please take on the feedback, practice some more and resubmit your application again in 4 weeks. We want you to practice to really perfect the styles.

If you have been accepted:

You will be sent a congratulations email with an electronic certificate and the link to claim your physical gift. 🥳

All the hairstyles need to be upstyles as the course is all about upstyles. They need to be as close to the hairstyles I teach as possible so preferably no variations.

No there is no deadline. You can submit your application between the 3rd & 24th month since your enrolment. So as long as you've joined for 3 months, you can submit your application. This will be an ongoing program.

So..which certificate will YOU be getting? 🥰

Firstly we know that it's important for some countries to have certificates if you have done a course. Not only that it's always nice to be recognised for your effort when you have finished studying anything!

Nonetheless, the certificates are not given to everyone simply because they have signed up to Hair Boss University™.

We know that in life, not everyone who start will actually finish...it's just what it is! So we want to reward those who have actually put in the work and for those of you who have gone above and beyond and got incredible results, we want to honour you even more!

So the intention of the 3 different levels of certificates is to really highlight those who have done extremely well and have invested a lot of time in their learning to achieve amazing transformations in their hair skills.

We hope that most of you will be able to snatch up the Gold Level certificate. 🏆
