Science Foundation Online Course

Confused by colour?

Do you sometimes feel like you’re just guessing with your formulas? Unsure which shade to choose? Or maybe bleach still feels a little scary?

That’s exactly why we created the Science Foundation Course — the perfect starting point if you want to feel confident and clear on the basics of hair and colour science.

What you’ll learn (made simple):

• How to spot the differences between hair types, texture, and structure.
• How to read natural depth and tones in hair so you know what you’re really working with.
• The basics of product chemistry and how it affects hair.
• Why pH levels matter and how they guide your product choices.
• Clear visuals and easy-to-follow analogies that make the science stick.

This course is for you if:

• You want to finally feel comfortable with the science side of colour.
• You’re starting out and want a strong foundation to build on.
• You’ve learned some theory at college, but it didn’t really “click.”
• You’re ready to stop doubting yourself and start colouring with confidence.

The perfect foundation before stepping up into Chaulk Mentor or the in-person Become a Colour Master course.
