(latest NCVER data)SHBHCUT004 Create layered haircut structures prepares hairdressers to create uniform and increased layered cuts that add movement and remove weight while still complementing the client’s face shape and hair texture. Because layering is requested in salons every day, this unit gives RTOs a practical option for hairdressing programs, supported by SHBHCUT004 learning materials covering pointing, notching and end tapering.
Learners develop skills in consulting with clients, analysing hair and facial characteristics, selecting layering techniques, positioning the head and controlling angles of lift, establishing and cross-checking guidelines, cutting with even tension, finishing to shape and recommending home care.
Give your team our SHBHCUT004 RTO training materials instead of building layering resources internally. Purchase RTO materials and begin with SHBHCUT004 training resources that suit training-head practice and client services.
These SHBHCUT004 training materials provide a prepared foundation for creating uniform and increased layered haircut structures. Purchase RTO materials and draw on the SHBHCUT004 learning materials for consistent practical delivery.

The unit addresses five core areas:
Yes. Across three clients, learners must complete at least one uniform and one increased layered haircut and use blunt cutting, pointing, notching and end tapering with texturising scissors. The tools are developed as compliant learning resources, but assessors should check client suitability before delivery.
The Learner Guide compares the shapes, angles of lift and scissor angles used for uniform and increased layering, supported by visual slides.
