There is no difference in curriculum between the two. Online Hair Artistry is an online course which is designed so you can learn at your own pace. Watch video demos, read your ebook, take quizzes, complete HW, all through your portal with direct support, review, and feedback from our pro instructors. Online is a great option for non-local students or students who need more time to complete their education. Hyper Hair Artistry is a in-person at our Academy in Hollywood. Hypers are private one-on-one courses with the student and our pro instructor. The hyper ranges from 4-5 consecutive days total depending on the student’s availability. Hypers are an excellent option for students who prefer to learn their fundamentals in-person in a hands-on and one-on-one environment with our pro MVA instructors.

Step 2:
Elite Hair Artistry
In step 2, it’s time to build your portfolio and get hands-on in the studio. Elite Hair Artistry can only be taken after you complete either Online Hair Artistry or in-person Hyper Hair Artistry. Elite Hair Artistry builds on the fundamentals you learned and takes everything to the next level. Elite is in-person at MVA. Class is once a week for 6 weeks. Each week focuses on a specific Hair look/technique. Students do the look on a model, the model is professionally styled, and then professionally photographed in our studio. This unique program, only at MVA, builds student’s portfolios and provides invaluable hands-on experience.
EHA builds off of what you learn in Step 1 and teaches you new and advanced techniques that you did not cover in Step 1 via hands-on learning. Each week you’ll create a Hair makeup look using your Step 1 theory and take it to the next level using new techniques taught only in EHA. After completing the look it will be taken to the studio to be professionally styled and photographed. Here are the topics/looks you will complete:
- Creating or enhancing texture
- Bridal Updos
- Hollywood Glam Waves
- Editorial High Ponytail
- Braids (simple 3 strand braid, on-scalp braid, french or dutch braid, and fishtail braid)
- Finals: Design your own hair styling look with a bonus demo on Finger Waves
