Inclusive Haircare CPD Training for Organisations
At DOOPS Academy, we deliver CPD-accredited Inclusive Haircare Training that equips carers, schools, and social service professionals with the confidence, knowledge, and cultural understanding to care for Afro-textured and curly hair.
Our mission is simple — to make inclusive haircare a standard, not a specialist skill.
What We Deliver
Our accredited CPD courses blend practical training with cultural awareness, helping professionals provide care that is both safe and affirming. Each course explores the science of Afro-textured hair, everyday care routines, and the cultural identity connected to hair in Black and mixed-heritage communities.
Training is available online or in person, with options for teams, local authorities, schools, and foster agencies.
Our Core CPD Modules
1. Understanding Afro & Curly Hair Textures in Care Settings
Learn to identify different hair types, understand their unique needs, and provide care that promotes healthy growth and self-esteem.
2. Practical Haircare Routines for Children with Afro Hair
Step-by-step routines for wash days, moisture maintenance, and protective styling — tailored for non-
specialists and busy carers.
3. Cultural Identity & Confidence Through Hair
Explore the relationship between hair, self-expression, and identity, and how professionals can support confidence in children and young people.
4. Inclusive Hair Policies for Schools & Care Organisations
Understand how to develop or review policies that promote inclusion, representation, and equal standards of care.
5. Building Confidence in Styling Afro Hair for Beginners
Hands-on techniques for simple, safe styles — including plaits, twists, and cornrows — suitable for everyday care environments.
