Open Chair? In Detroit? Come out and support this great event!

ScissorCandy™ regularly convenes hairstylists for Open Chair® events. Modeled after a classic “open mic” event where rising musicians perform their art form on stage to a live audience, Open Chair® provides up-and-coming hairstylists the opportunity to demonstrate their freestyle hair-cutting talents on live models that they have never met before in a casual Sunday night social environment. The event spotlights young stylists and provides a public platform for them to shine outside of the confines of the salon. Set to the sounds of the city’s up-and-coming DJs, the stylists become the performers in an unscripted production that energizes, inspires and entertains those who watch it. In addition to hairstylists, Open Chair® events feature makeup artists, models, food and drink specials, and hundreds of guests in and out of the beauty industry.

Class #2 of the day...Michigan Education Tour, Barber Styling College of Lansing

Class 1 of 2, Michigan Education Tour stops at...Flint Institute of Barbering

The Flint Institute of Barbering, Inc. was started in 1925 under the name, Flint Barber College, and was located at 721 S. Saginaw Street, Flint Michigan. In 1942 the school was closed due to the lack of students (World War II) until 1946, when it was reopened under the name of Greene's Barber College of Flint at 118 ¹/₂ E. Water Street, Flint, Michigan. The name was changed again in 1952 to the Flint Institute of Barbering. The Flint Institute of Barbering was incorporated as a Michigan Corporation on November 30, 1960.

MICHIGAN BARBER SCHOOL est. 1947

Today I started my 7 day trip at Michigan Barber School. I was trilled by the history and the students that attended the class today. I only had an hour, but I saw the passion and the hunger for knowledge in their eyes as I spoke about professionalism and drive. Here is a little information on them.

The Michigan Barber School, Inc. was founded in January 1947 in Detroit, Michigan to provide tonsorial instruction and related sciences. Since its inception, the school has relocated three times in the Detroit area, and with each move the school has enjoyed continuous growth together with substantial improvement in physical facilities, equipment, and curriculum.

Forrest F. Green, the founder, successfully managed the school from 1947 until his retirement in 1974, after which his son, Forrest F. Green, Jr., became the managing director of the school and continues to serve in that position.

The purpose of the Michigan Barber School is to train potentially the finest barbers in America. The school’s philosophy is to provide successful, Licensed Barber/Stylists in a profession that is virtually unaffected by the economic conditions, employment cycles, age, creed, color, or any standing in society.

The Michigan Barber School’s primary educational objective is to prepare students for entrance or advancement in the Barber/Styling occupation, requiring technical and/or career oriented competencies and skills. The school’s educational objectives are career oriented and provide students with the necessary competencies, skills, and level of education for employment in the Barber/Styling field of study. The Michigan Barber School must ensure that all required courses and assistance are available to enable students to complete their program of study. – Section II (A)(7) of the Standards of Accreditation.
