Product Details
Ventilation II is for ventilators who already knot and want to update their work, and for Ventilation I students moving up. Three people at most, so Gold can sit with each pair of hands.
Day 1: multi-directional knotting and custom hairlines
- One-to-one review of your closure
- Multi-directional knotting, so the hair moves the way it grows
- Density, briefly: how much hair goes where
- Custom hairlines, shown on standard, widow's peak and textured
Day 2: Hollywood lace, then the finish
- Adding Hollywood lace: thinner, tension sensitive, knotted under supervision
- Bleaching the knots once the piece is finished
- Knot sealing
Who can book
Anyone who has done Ventilation I. If you already knot and trained elsewhere, send us a photo of a 6x6 closure you have knotted before booking. If it meets the standard Ventilation I students reach, you can book directly.
What to bring
Your 6x6 closure. Hollywood lace, and everything for bleaching and sealing, is included in the kit.
Want density in depth?
Density is covered briefly here. It is the heart of Full Lace Architecture, our online course, which comes with its own companion book.
