Hair Design
Hair designers shampoo, cut, style, condition and singe (see Barbering) hair and apply chemical treatments such as coloring, dyeing, relaxing and permanent waves. They also temporarily curl and braid hair as well as shave, trim and cut beards and/or mustaches.
Hair designers also massage the scalp and neck — but not the face — when in conjunction with the above services.
