JMS Classroom
So you'd like to learn hairwork or elevate your braiding game? Here you'll find instant download that will help you learn to create your own horsehair keepsakes and maybe even start your own businesses!
On this page you'll find all the info needed to start your keepsake journey. This type of braiding is an art and as such does require a little bit of thought and investment to get started. You can expect to spend anywhere from $300-$500 in supplies and jewelry to get started making your own keepsakes and horsehair items.
I learned my craft through interpreting Mark Campbell's The Art of Hair Work, published in 1867. You can find a digital copy of the book scanned by The Project Gutenberg, here: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/38658/38658-h/38658-h.htm
Joining the JMS Classroom will fast track your learning because I've done all the experimenting for you! You'll have access to videos and pdf's giving you patterns for different braids and how to source findings. I'll also teach you my way of setting up your table, braiding, and inserting your braids into the findings. These videos and pdfs are yours to review to over and over.
Once you purchase the course, you'll also be invited to join the JMS Classroom facebook page where you'll be able to ask me questions.
These videos and supplies offered are specifically meant to be used with horsehair, the table can be used with human hair, however you do need a much lighter set of weights.
