"Travis Parker Academy has really been enjoyable to learn from, as its simple yet effective, especially coming from the fact that I’m a barber. I'm able to learn women’s focused cutting techniques and apply it to men’s haircutting. Hair is hair. It’s just about being open to step outside the box, learn new things, and apply it accordingly!”
“I’ve never felt comfortable in hair cutting, I always felt very vulnerable, and I definitely had a lot of insecurities with hair cutting all together. I walked away feeling extremely comfortable with haircutting; and I would dare say it, that I would actually consider myself a actual hair cutter.”
"I am so grateful for my time at the Travis Parker Academy, which has felt more like a retreat than just advanced education. By providing a simple approach to shapes that we all know and love, I find myself revisiting pieces of the program daily. Beyond refreshing technique, I believe hairstylists will walk away from TPA with a renewed perspective on their time behind the chair."
"Travis is a genius with cutting hair. Not only is the way he cuts hair effortless and modern, he also makes it fun and easy with no judgement. I would recommend anyone to try it. I’ve been doing hair for 14 years, and man, did it help me. Thanks again Travis, you’re the man. Love ya buddy.”
“The academy hits all the marks for my high expectations of education. The content is thoughtful and approachable, the environment is inspiring, and the educators are always focused on the needs of their students.”
“The Travis Parker Academy provides a comprehensive roadmap for executing the full continuum of looks, from classic to current and trendy. As you work your way through the courses, the skill sets layer on top of each other, building your confidence. Most importantly you walk away with a new friend in Travis, as well as a mentor.”
