Program details

Overview

This 21-hour Micro-Credential for Red Seal and qualified hairdressers focuses on the skills essential to success on a busy film set. You will be introduced to the positions available in the Hair department; the hierarchy of a film set; the role of the union, and processes and strategies for joining; the concept of continuity and best practices for maintaining continuity during shoots and reshoots; script and scene breakdowns; and the mechanics of hair design and process for men and women.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Admission to the Foundations of Hair for Film Micro-credential requires the applicant to already hold one of: a current Red Seal Hairstylist Certification, a Certificate of Qualifications from the Beauty Council of Western Canada, or a British Columbia Hair License. The course page states no additional academic prerequisite, no minimum grade point average, and no English-language test requirement (no IELTS, TOEFL, PTE, Duolingo or CAEL score is published), since eligibility rests entirely on the hairstyling credential. Applicants who do not hold one of the listed credentials are told to email [email protected] for individual guidance before enrolling, rather than being given a fixed equivalency path on the page itself. No portfolio, interview, work-experience, or age condition beyond the credential requirement is stated.

Application Details

Application Deadline: Domestic applicants apply through EducationPlannerBC for Camosun's open-enrolment programmes: for Fall 2027 (September) applications open 1 October 2026 with an early deadline of 15 May 2027 for priority registration and a late deadline of 26 August 2027; Winter 2027 (January) runs 15 September 2026 to 7 January 2027, and Summer 2027 (May) 15 January 2027 to 29 April 2027. Limited-enrolment programmes publish only an opening date and can close once the waitlist exceeds the seats on offer. International applicants must submit a complete application by 1 June (Fall), 1 October (Winter) or 1 February (Summer), though later applications are still reviewed while seats remain, making admission effectively rolling for both groups once the early deadlines pass. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
