Pré-inscription

Pré-inscription is the pre-registration page for the Méthode Hillside, a barber training program based in Paris. It collects personal information, professional situation, experience level, desired start date, and funding options like personal payment or CPF. Each application is reviewed individually, and admissions are described as selective with limited spots available.

The program is designed for individuals seeking to learn barbering fundamentals and build professional skills. It focuses on teaching the specific 8-step fade method through an in-person, 48-hour course structure.

To get started, you must fill out the pre-registration form on the website to provide your professional situation and experience level. After submission, each application is reviewed individually to determine if you qualify for one of the limited spots.

The course takes place in a private salon located at 78 rue de l'Aqueduc in the 10th arrondissement of Paris. The schedule runs from Monday to Friday between 12 h and 20 h.

The curriculum covers the 8 steps of the fade in order: Diagnosis, Ligne à blanc, Premier passage, Hauteur, Contraste, Fondu, Fondu bas, and Contrôle 360°. Students also learn to read a head and use tools like the TEMA Booksy platform.

The program consists of 35 hours of instruction split over 5 days. The first three days are held in a private salon, while the final two days take place in an open salon with real clients.

The tuition fee is 3500 euros, which includes all aspects of the formation fade package. This price covers the 35 hours of practical and theoretical training provided by the two instructors.

The program is limited to a maximum of 5 students per session to ensure personalized attention. Each session is led by two barbers who are also the instructors for the course.

The teaching method follows a four-step cycle: Montre (show), Prédis (predict), Fais (do), and Explique (explain). Students must predict the next step before touching the clippers and explain errors to correct them at the source.

The course includes a social media module where students write 3 hooks, mount one video with subtitles, and receive a corrected profile along with a 7-day calendar.

Upon completion, students receive an Attestation de formation Hillside, their personal bilan, and a plan de progression. They also leave with a completed fiche de tête and the ability to control a cut 360°.

The website states that the program has been operating since 2026, with instructors Farouk Barber and Nathan Pécorilla having over 10 years of experience and 10,000+ hours of practice.
