Design notes
The badge is a crown braid: a three-strand plait laid in an endless ring around an ivory disc, drawn lock by lock in chestnut with honey highlights. Hair Styling sits in the centre in a bold serif, with room for the issuer's logo above it, and a brass cuff across the foot of the ring carries the word CERTIFIED. The ring and the two words stay clear at about 120 px, so it fits academies and salons that want a crafted mark instead of a pair of scissors.
About
Hair Stylist Badge Template, Crown Braid
Hairdressing academies, salon groups that train their own juniors and product brands with education programs give this badge when a student finishes a hair styling course and passes the practical assessments. The new stylist then shows it where clients book: on a salon booking profile, an Instagram bio link or LinkedIn, next to the certificate framed at the station.

Post for the recipient to share
Twelve weeks of cutting, colouring, blow-drying and very early mornings, and today I finished my hairdressing course. Thank you to my educators for their patience and to every model who sat in my chair while I learned. My certificate is going up at my station, and I am ready for my first clients. #Hairdressing #HairStylist #SalonLife
