Fashion Styling For Men

In Styling For Men, you'll learn just that—how to style for your male clients. First, you'll learn how to identify and dress the different male body types including the oval, trapezoid, triangle, rectangle, and inverted triangle. You'll learn each body type's key features, strongest and weakest features, and celebrity examples. Next, you'll learn how to work with each body type in greater depth, as well as how to adapt outfits to suit short and tall men.

In the second half of Styling For Men, you'll learn the five most common obstacles you'll likely encounter when working with male clients and how to overcome each. These obstacles include The Shy Man (someone who doesn't quickly share his opinion or is more quiet than most clients), The Fashionisto Man (the male client who believes he knows more than you and has very strong opinions on fashion, even when they're not right), The "I Don't Know" Man (a male client who finds it difficult to make decisions and requires extra reassurance), The Manly Man (the client who may have had the session set up by his significant other, though he'd rather be in sports wear at the gym), and The Self-Unaware Man (the male client with a great physique but no clue how to dress to show it off). You'll be ready to work with any male client, make him feel comfortable, and remain confident in your styling direction.
