Who this course is for

This training is for hairdressers who can already cornrow confidently. Cornrowing is the foundation of the weft technique, so this skill is essential before booking.

Weft crochet is a protective styling technique that builds on cornrow foundations, using pre-made wefts stitched into place for a faster installation than traditional strand-by-strand crochet.

In this course, you’ll learn how to create natural-looking styles that clients can wear comfortably and confidently for weeks, using a technique that’s quicker to install without compromising on the finish.

The training is hands-on and salon-focused, so you can deliver results for your own clients.

About the trainer

Learn directly from Kissa

I’m Kissa, a hair professional with over 15 years of experience in braiding, weaving, and extension techniques.

I began in traditional braiding, working closely with women who wanted styles that looked good but also felt manageable, comfortable and suited to their lifestyle. Over time, I specialised in crochet and protective styling, focusing on natural-looking results that support both hair health and confidence.

What’s stayed consistent throughout my career is the women I attract into my chair. I’ve worked with clients from all walks of life, including women who had completely stepped away from salons because they felt nothing ever worked for them, or nothing ever felt “right”.

That shapes how I train. I teach you how to install a style, why it works, how it feels for the client, and how to create results that make women feel confident and comfortable in their hair again.
