How to choose your Testamodella®

The ideal professional hairdressing heads mannequin for courses and academies

Organizing professional hairdressing courses requires teaching aids that are up to the job. 

Among these, the Testamodella®’s  are one of the most important elements to guarantee quality exercises.

But how do you choose the right Testamodella®’s, especially when it comes to purchasinglarge quantities for courses, schools or professional academies?

In this article we look together at the key criteria for an effective choice and why relying on a specialist supplier such as Caliven can make all the difference.

The Importance of Choosing the Right Testamodella®

Every hairdressing course has specific learning objectives. For this reason, not every Testamodella® is suitable for every type of exercise.

Anyone who runs an academy or organizes courses knows how important it is to have reliable, durable heads mannequin with hair that responds realistically to treatment. An incorrect choice can compromise the students'  training experience, generating dissatisfaction and operational difficulties.

When purchasing Testamodella®’s and in stock for the entire training course, it is therefore essential to aim for consistent professional standards, avoiding cheap but unreliable solutions.

 

100% natural hair or mixed hair? Here's what really changes

One of the most important choices concerns the hair type of the Testamodella®’s.

100% natural hair:
They are the best choice for advanced exercises such as cutting, colouring, styling, hairstyling, chemical treatments and the use of heat tools. They behave exactly like human hair and offer a realistic experience, essential for professional training. In addition, they guarantee greater durability even with frequent use.

Mixed hair:

Having an excellent price-performance ratio, they are an ideal alternative for even basic exercises. Some Caliven models still allow the use of hair dryers, straighteners and curling irons (within 160/180°C), but are not suitable for bleaching and chemical treatments. Perfect for asic cutting, cold styling, crop and entry-level courses.

Types of exercises: every course needs the right Testamodella®.

Before purchasing Testamodella®’s  in large quantities for a school or training centre, it is good to ask: what kind of exercises will the students do?

Here are some common cases:

Cut: hair with adequate density and medium or long length, to allow more practice.

Colouring and highlights: only real, possibly high quality, to guarantee a faithful rendering.

Styling and kinks: important lengths, good combability, solid and resistant implant.

Styling with heat (hair dryer or straightener): heat-resistant hair and, in the case of mixed hair, high quality of the synthetic component and heat resistance up to 160/180°.

Each course has specific needs, which is why it is useful to rely on a partner who can advise on the most suitable solutions for the teaching program.
