Braid &
Twist Mastery

A two-day intensive for stylists ready to be great

Baltimore, Maryland
10 students per class — intentionally small
No cosmetology license required
16 styles. Two days. Real instruction.

Your hair is never just hair. It is culture, identity, and history.

Most stylists are not held back by talent. They are held back by gaps.

  • Losing clients to other stylists Because they offer styles you have not mastered yet — knotless braids, boho braids, Havana twists — and clients notice.
  • Feeling stuck at the same skill level You are good. You know it. But "good" is not what clients pay premium prices for. Mastery is.
  • Winging techniques you never properly learned YouTube can only take you so far. Real proficiency comes from real instruction — hands-on, corrected, practiced under expert eyes.
  • Leaving money on the table every week Every service you cannot confidently offer is a booking you do not get. The skills you are missing are costing you right now.

Two days.
Sixteen styles. One room.

Braid and Twist Mastery is a small-group hands-on intensive designed to take intermediate stylists from good to exceptional — in the techniques that actually build careers.

You are ready to level up.

You are not quite there yet.

  • You have never done natural hair before and are looking for a beginner class
  • You are not prepared to actively practice and implement what you learn
  • You are looking for an online or virtual option — this class is in person only
  • You are not in a position to invest in your education at this time

Your Instructor

  • 12+ years as a professional natural hair stylist
  • Named Baltimore's Best Stylist
  • Brand partner — SheaMoisture, Carol's Daughter, Taliah Waajid
  • Featured in Essence and BuzzFeed
  • Lived and worked across 4 countries
  • Founder of The Charming Army community

I have been doing hair for 12 years. Not watching it on YouTube. Not learning from tutorials. Actually doing it — on clients who trusted me with their crowns every week.

I built a real career in natural hair. The awards, the brand partnerships, the clientele — none of it came from luck. It came from mastering the techniques that most stylists learn halfway and then wing the rest of the way.

I know exactly what separates stylists who are good from stylists who are exceptional. And it almost never comes down to raw talent.

It comes down to having someone put you in a room, show you the right way to do something, watch you do it, and correct you until it is second nature. That kind of instruction changed my career. And it is exactly what I am here to give you.

Braid and Twist Mastery is the class I wish had existed when I was building my foundation. I designed it for stylists who are serious — who are ready to invest in themselves and walk out of two days genuinely transformed.

Ten seats. Three dates. Come ready to work.

Everything you need to know.

Do I need a cosmetology license to attend?

+
No license is required. Braid and Twist Mastery is designed for intermediate stylists — whether you are licensed or self-taught. What matters is that you already have some experience with natural hair and you are ready to level up significantly.

What does "intermediate level" mean exactly?

+
It means you have done natural hair before — on clients, friends, family, or yourself — and you are comfortable with the basics. You do not need to already know every style on the curriculum. If you have been doing hair and feel like there are clear gaps in what you can confidently offer, this class is built for you.

What do I bring to class?

+
You will receive a full supply list after you register. In general you will bring your own tools — rattail comb, clips, and hair accessories you are comfortable working with. Hair and materials for practice will be covered in your registration details. Come dressed comfortably and ready to work.

Is this class available online or virtually?

+
No. Braid and Twist Mastery is an in-person only experience in Baltimore, Maryland. The hands-on instruction, real-time feedback, and small group environment are core to the transformation the class delivers. Virtual instruction cannot replicate that. If you are outside of Baltimore, you are welcome to travel — the class is worth it.

Why is the class limited to 10 people?

+
Because real instruction requires real attention. In a room of 10 students, Zarah can see what every person is doing, correct technique in real time, and make sure everyone actually walks out proficient — not just having watched someone else do it. The small size is a feature, not a limitation. It is what makes this class worth $997.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule?

+
Life happens. If something comes up, reach out as early as possible and we will do our best to transfer your seat to a future class date based on availability. Specific terms will be shared at registration. We want every student to make it into the room — so we will work with you where we can.
