Today we’d like to introduce you to Nieves Almaraz.
Nieves, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
How To Fade Hair Started in 2008 and is a Certified Illinois State Sponsor of Continued Education. The vision of How To Fade Hair is to educate barbers and cosmetologist to become better haircutters through our classes and educational material. We are also opened to the public for barbering services at Jacob’s Barbershop in Cicero Illinois.
Has it been a smooth road?
One of the major struggles How To Fade Hair has encountered is financing, thus far all money invested has been by Nieves himself.
So, as you know, we’re impressed with How To Fade Hair – tell our readers more, for example what you’re most proud of as a company and what sets you apart from others.
How To Fade Hair is known for our education in throughout the hair industry, we released our first instructional hair clipper cutting Dvd in 2009. To date, we have 4 instructional hair cutting Dvds along with other products such as posters, apparel, and tools. We have unique techniques not traditionally taught that we can interpret in English and Spanish that set our education apart which were learned through years of trial and error by Master Educator Nieves Almaraz.
We are coming off of a 10 city Illinois educational tour this year and have also expanded our education to Mexico and South America. Our haircut posters are hanging in barbershops and the salon’s around the world, our YouTube channel video views are at over 7 million.
