Salon Owner / Cosmetology Instructor
I am a cosmetology instructor for the state of Tennessee. The practical consists of 5 minutes of haircutting(any elevation or angle). Most start with 0 degree and move to 45 degree. I would suggest doing what you feel most comfortable. The rest is three perm rods, color retouch, virgin color, 3 foils, and blowdry with thermal curls. These are all done on one head with the last four mentioned in four sections on the head.
