In four minutes I explain how the SR Method works and what you get in the course. The video is in Italian.

Sound familiar?

Four problems I see every day

You work hard, watch the pros, try new techniques and invest in better tools. Yet there are still times when the result is not what you want.

The weight line will not go away

You run the clipper, change guards, work the corners, but that line stays visible and you waste time not knowing where to act.

The connections are not clean

A client asks for a taper, a mullet or different lengths and blending the zones gets tricky: gaps and harsh transitions.

Results change from client to client

The cut works on one head and not on the next, because you have no method to read shape, density, cowlicks and growth direction.

The cut is fine, but not clean

Technically it is correct, but it lacks the clean shapes, connections and finishing that set a high-level job apart.

The SR Method

How the SR Method works

The SR Method explains the logic behind every step: reading the head, recognising the working areas, managing weight, connecting lengths and choosing the right technique for the result you want.

01

Precision

You know where to set guidelines, where to remove weight, where to keep it and how to work without ruining the shape.

02

Technical confidence

You handle different head shapes, densities, cowlicks, growth directions and hair types without always applying the same fix.

03

Consistency

You deliver the same standard on every client: the result no longer depends on the day or on how well you know that cut.

The course

Four masterclasses

Each module combines technical explanation with work on a model: you watch every step, understand the logic and repeat it straight away in the shop.

Portrait of Simone Ranzini
Your teacher

I built my method working every day

I started cutting hair at 16, with no set path. Then came the real apprenticeship: 12 or 13 hour days, hundreds of mistakes, different clients and head shapes, problems no tutorial fully explained.

To improve I studied, travelled, watched professionals around the world and tried every technique in the shop. Over time I realised the best results came when I could give every stage of the cut a precise logic. That is how the SR Method was born.

Today I have been in the industry for more than 13 years, I am the European lead for JRL Professional and a global ambassador for L3VEL3, and I have trained more than 1,000 professionals through events, courses and masterclasses. I created L'Arte del Barbiere to make the method I use every day available to everyone.

I do not want to teach you to copy my cuts. I want to teach you to build yours better.

FAQ

Before you start

Is the course in English?

The lessons are in Italian. The technique is shown step by step with close-up footage on models, so most of it can be followed by watching.

Can I get an invoice?

Yes. After paying, email sr.simoneranzini@gmail.com with your company details and the name used for the purchase.

I am a hairdresser, is the course right for me?

Yes. Men's cutting follows different geometric rules from women's. If you want to raise the level of your men's service, this course gives you the foundations.

Is it suitable for beginners?

Yes. We start from the basics: grip, posture, reading the head. Learning the right method from day one saves you years of trial and error.

How is the SR Method different from other online courses?

It is practical: a system you can repeat in the shop, on real clients, at real shop pace. Old school precision with a modern style.

Do I need expensive tools?

No. I show you what I use, but you learn to get excellent results with the tools you already have.

Do you issue a certificate?

Not for the video course. I issue the SR certificate only to people who attend my live courses, where I can see their command of the technique with my own eyes.

How does access work?

Access is for life. Watch the lessons on phone, tablet or computer as many times as you want, even while cutting a friend or a model.

What if I have questions during the course?

The lessons are shot in close-up and explained step by step to answer most doubts in advance. For specific questions, send me a DM on Instagram.

Does the beard module include straight razor shaving?

Yes. It covers the full hot towel protocol, the use of products and blade handling for a complete spa service.
