Practise your craft on the real thing. The Exalto Ludo Hairdressing Head Block is a training mannequin made with 100% human Indian hair, giving students and apprentices an authentic, realistic experience as they practise their core techniques. Made for educational settings, barbering courses and in-salon training, it's a dependable, genuine canvas for building the skills and confidence to work on real clients, and because it's real human hair, everything you practise translates directly to client work. Please note: this head does not come with a holder or tripod stand, which is sold separately.

What it does

The big advantage of a human-hair training head over a synthetic one is realism, and it matters most for colour and heat work, where synthetic fibre behaves very differently to real hair under professional products and tools. The Ludo's 100% human Indian hair reacts authentically to everything you'd do on a client, so it's a versatile all-rounder: barbering students can practise men's cutting and beard trimming with a natural feel and response; colour students can work through bleaching, colouring and balayage on hair that lifts and takes colour like the real thing; and it's fully compatible with heat tools for blow-drying, straightening and curling. That authenticity is what gives you a genuine head start when you move to working in a real salon.

How to use it

Mount the head on a compatible training-head stand or tripod (sold separately) using the base fitting, then work through your chosen techniques as you would on a client. As it's human hair, it can be washed, coloured, lightened and heat-styled, use the same products, tools and safety practices you'd use in a real service, and take the usual care with chemical processes, following product instructions.

Who it's for

This one's for barbering and hairdressing students, training academies, colleges and in-salon education teams who want a high-quality, realistic human-hair head for developing a broad range of techniques, from men's cutting and beard work to colour and heat styling. We've been perfecting colour, blow-dries and styling for clients in Codsall for years, and there's no substitute for practising on realistic hair before you work on a paying client.
