ABOUT C.O.M.B. EDU

(Q)What is C.O.M.B. EDU?

C.O.M.B. EDU is the educational division of the C.O.M.B. Collective, dedicated to empowering beauty schools, students, and instructors with real-world, hands-on training in natural hair care and braiding. We offer immersive experiences, instructor certification support, and school partnership programs.

Why was C.O.M.B. EDU created?

After over 25 years of professional industry experience, we saw the gaps between licensure preparation and real salon readiness. C.O.M.B. EDU was designed to bridge that gap by offering hands-on education, mentoring, and classroom solutions that reflect today’s natural hair care demands.

What does C.O.M.B. stand for?

C.O.M.B. stands for “Crowning Our Mastery in Braiding” — a commitment to training, skill-building, and excellence in the craft of natural hair care.
