22.02	Demonstrate the practice of effective draping of the client to insure safety in the workplace and community.  Use active listening to communicate with the client an understanding of factors that influence the determination of strategies necessary to meet individual client needs.	
22.03	Describe, observe, identify and analyze the functions, structures, diseases and disorders of the scalp and hair.	
22.04	Analyze the hair's texture, density, elasticity, porosity and condition to determine the appropriate solutions needed to perform the service and obtain the desired results.  Select and assemble all needed materials after analysis.	
22.05	Divide the hair into appropriate sections to visualize the scalp for proper application of product.	
22.06	Mix, if required, and apply appropriate color, toner, and/or bleach according to manufacturer's directions.  Use proper safety equipment to safeguard the student, operator, and client.	
22.07	Perform a strand test to determine desired color using proper procedures.  Follow all safety and sanitation procedures.	
22.08	Identify and perform specialty-coloring techniques using the knowledge of ratios and proportions to analyze the density and texture of the client's hair and determine the techniques needed to properly section and apply product.	
22.09	Choose the appropriate shampoo to cleanse the hair using knowledge of shampoo chemistry before or after applying color according to manufacturer's instructions.  Remove unwanted color stains on the skin if needed using appropriate products and complete the client consultation card.	
22.10	Analyze the hair to determine if a conditioner or normalizing conditioner is needed either before or after shampooing using the knowledge of the chemistry of conditioners.  Follow manufacturer's directions.  Complete the client consultation card.	

Additional Information

Laboratory Activities

Laboratory investigations that include scientific inquiry, research, measurement, problem solving, emerging technologies, tools and equipment, as well as, experimental, quality, and safety procedures are an integral part of this career and technical program/course. Laboratory investigations benefit all students by developing an understanding of the complexity and ambiguity of empirical work, as well as the skills required to manage, operate, calibrate and troubleshoot equipment/tools used to make observations. Students understand measurement error; and have the skills to aggregate, interpret, and present the resulting data. Equipment and supplies should be provided to enhance hands-on experiences for students.

Special Notes

N/A

Career and Technical Student Organization (CTSO)

SkillsUSA, Inc. is the appropriate career and technical student organization for providing leadership training and reinforcing specific career and technical skills.  Career and Technical Student Organizations provide activities for students as an integral part of the instruction offered.  

Cooperative Training – OJT

On-the-job training is appropriate but not required for this program.  Whenever offered, the rules, guidelines, and requirements specified in the OJT framework apply. 

Basic Skills (if applicable)

In PSAV programs offered for 450 hours or more, in accordance with Rule 6A-10.040, F.A.C., the minimum basic skills grade levels required for postsecondary adult career and technical students to complete this program are:  Mathematics 8, Language 8 and Reading 9.  These grade level numbers correspond to a grade equivalent score obtained on a state designated basic skills examination.  

Adult students with disabilities, as defined in Section 1004.02(7), Florida Statutes, may be exempted from meeting the Basic Skills requirements (Rule 6A-10.040).  Students served in exceptional student education (except gifted) as defined in s. 1003.01(3)(a), F.S., may also be exempted from meeting the Basic Skills requirement.  Each school district and Florida College must adopt a policy addressing procedures for exempting eligible students with disabilities from the Basic Skills requirement as permitted in Section 1004.91(3), F.S.

Students who possess a college degree at the Associate of Applied Science level or higher; who have completed or are exempt from the college entry-level examination; or who have passed a state, national, or industry licensure exam are exempt from meeting the Basic Skills requirement (Rule 6A-10.040, F.A.C.) Exemptions from state, national or industry licensure are limited to the certifications listed on the Basic Skills and Licensure Exemption List which may be accessed from the CTE Program Resources page.

Accommodations

Federal and state legislation requires the provision of accommodations for students with disabilities to meet individual needs and ensure equal access. Postsecondary students with disabilities must self-identify, present documentation, request accommodations if needed, and develop a plan with their counselor and/or instructors. Accommodations received in postsecondary education may differ from those received in secondary education. Accommodations change the way the student is instructed. Students with disabilities may need accommodations in such areas as instructional methods and materials, assignments and assessments, time demands and schedules, learning environment, assistive technology and special communication systems. Documentation of the accommodations requested and provided should be maintained in a confidential file.

Note: postsecondary curriculum and regulated secondary programs cannot be modified.
