How much do you know about HEX makeup school?

How does HEX program work in just 5 days? Our short-term program is a comprehensive program. What does that mean? Comprehensive means more condense and efficient rather than spread-out or, in some cases, maybe less productive and not to the point. Comprehensive also means without running around - cutting to the chase. It is direct and dynamic approach.

 

There are many universities and colleges that offer comprehensive programming. Some makeup schools still operate in an old-fashion sense - more laid back, slow and haven’t improved their curriculum with modern makeup techniques, nor have they updated their methods.  Nowadays, schools offer their classes in a much smaller time frame from two days up to a week. With good instructional techniques, short-term classes work just as good, if not better, than those that take two-five times as long, but with less cost and less time. See it for yourself on our Web site.

 

  1. Do the longer-length courses work better than a short and comprehensive way of schooling? Not really, it all depends on the quality of teaching, method, and techniques. Dragging something out for a longer period of time does not guarantee any better results.  As a matter of fact, most community colleges and state universities are now trying to offer comprehensive / short term courses, called “Pace Programs.” Why should you spend any unnecessary time in the classroom when you can gain experience and make money out of the classroom?

 

  1. How come some schools do the same program, but in a much longer time frame, or they do the same course, but in many different segments rather than all at once? Learning beauty makeup artistry is not a rocket science. With proper instruction and good techniques, it can be done in five days or it could be dragged-out and stretched for months. The main point is the result of the program. Here are a couple things to look for:

 

ü      See which school is offering better results (see their students’ work on their site). It doesn’t matter how or how long they do their courses as long as they do it right - then it must be working.

ü      See which school is giving you more service for your money (tuition), the quality of instruction, as well as a good instructor. Don’t forget that longer classes charge much more for their “stretched” class time and you are paying for it. The big question is “Are you really getting anything more out of it or is it just a way to create a bigger tuition charge?” 

 

3.      How come some schools do the same course, but in many different segments rather than all at once?

ü      Regarding the breaking down of classes - there is really no need to break down a beauty program into different segments. HEX offers its programs all- in-one, so you can get the most for your money (quality service). However it could be broken down into different segments to generate more business ($$) for some schools. Is there any need for it? No, it could be done all at once or it could be done in segments, but don’t forget, the bottom line is that students are the ones who are paying for it - literally.

 

  1. What if I can’t keep up with the speed of the program like others in the class? At HEX, we have a “program re-takes” policy. This is to give students a peace of mind. This is just in case you could not catch up to the rest of the class; you have the option to request to retake the entire program at no additional cost - up to five times!

 

  1. Is HEX certification the same as other schools? Is it usable anywhere in the USA or Europe?  HEX certification is similar to most of other makeup schools and programs everywhere in the United States. Our Certification does not expire and it can be used worldwide. It is a great tool to have to help you achieve professional employment as a professional makeup artist.

 

  1.  How come HEX only teaches a few classes every year? How come HEX does not cover every town and every city at all times? Why do HEX classes book way ahead of time? We get these questions a lot. We care about the quality of our instruction, which we believe is the most important aspect of schooling, and that is the main reason for our many years of success. Our classes are only instructed by the high-demand, Hollywood makeup artist - Angie G. Ford and she can only do so many classes a year. Why aren’t we hiring other instructors? Because then some of you won’t get the same quality education. We would rather teach fewer classes, but do it right. The point is getting the job done right - quality versus quantity.
