If you’re thinking about becoming a professional hairstylist, a great way to start is to take a FREE class from our online cosmetology school app.
Hi! We’re the Filmbook® Cosmetology app. And we have 37 complete cosmetology classes. You get one free. And you can take ALL of them when you subscribe!
You can learn all about haircutting, hairstyling, haircoloring, chemical texture, textured hair, and hair extensions. If you’re already in cosmetology school, you can get super smart and talented. (Think of the Filmbook Cosmetology app as your best kept secret.)
For those of you who are younger, the Filmbook Cosmetology app is a great way to convince your parents that you really do want to go to beauty school. And the app is so cost-effective. Just $4.99/month.
Heads up! If you live in the U.S., you still must finish a set number of hours at a beauty school and pass a cosmetology state board licensing exam to become a professional cosmetologist.
That’s the rules!
In other countries, you may be able to practice cosmetology after learning cosmetology school online. It totally depends on where you live—and how cosmetologists in your country are licensed.
Check the regulations in your state, province, or country to make sure you get the correct information on how to become a practicing cosmetologist or licensed beautician. Or hairstylist. Whatever it’s called where you live.
Get Started with a Free Graduated Layers Haircut Class
In our free cosmetology class, you’ll learn how elevation and finger angle affect the perimeter of a graduated layered haircut. You’ll see how four perimeters help you plan hair design. And you’ll get smart about scalp conditions and treatments.
There’s more! You’ll also see how to section hair for graduation (the act of cutting hair from shorter to longer on an angle).
Then, you’ll learn how to subsection below the occipital, which is the curved bone at the back of the skull.
At this point in the class, you will cut your guideline below the occipital. This determines the angle for your graduated layered cut.
Watch the film to see more of the steps in a graduated layered haircut.

Better yet, be sure to get your free cosmetology class on the App Store.
Four Free Cosmetology Films
As part of your free Graduated Layered Haircut class, you get three short theory films and a detailed, step-by-step haircut film on graduated layers. Here are the details:
1. Free Finger Angle Film
Finger angle is a principle of haircutting that guides the interior and perimeter lines. It also determines where the weight and movement is in the cut. Finger angle can point in toward the head, or out away from the head.
You get a free film on finger angle when you download the Filmbook Cosmetology app.
2. Free Finger Position Film
There are three finger positions in a haircut: horizontal, vertical, and diagonal.
Finger position influences haircut shape. Finger position and subsections are two important haircutting principles that every cosmetologist needs to learn. Get the Filmbook Cosmetology app and learn about finger position. You get a free film on finger position when you download the app.
3. Free Overdirection Film
When you shift hair out of its natural falling position it’s called “overdirection.”
The short film in the free Filmbook Cosmetology class shows you how overdirection creates weight and length in the opposite direction. For instance, if you overdirect hair from front to back, the hair is longer and heavier in the front. There are two reasons to use overdirection, and this film shows you both.
4. Free Graduated Layers Haircut Film
Graduated layered cuts are popular, but they can be difficult. Learn how to set up a plan for layering, decide on interior length, cut your guideline below the occipital, and maintain the perimeter angle.
Get a free, step-by-step Graduated Layered Haircut film when you download a free preview of the Filmbook Cosmetology app.
