1.1 PROFESSIONAL SKILL NAME AND DESCRIPTION
1.1.1 PROFESSIONAL SKILL NAME
The name of the skill is Hairdressing
1.1.2 PROFESSIONAL SKILL DESCRIPTION

The hairdresser works in the commercial sector, offering a range of hair care services. There is a direct
relationship between the nature, complexity, quality of services provided and their cost. Consequently,
the hairdresser has a great responsibility — he needs to work with the client professionally enough to
satisfy his needs, which in turn will help maintain and develop the beauty industry. Hairdressing refers
to Social and Personal Services. This direction industry is constantly developing, is consistently stable in
its development and enjoys a wide variety of products and goods for hair.
In addition, the services of a hairdresser play an important therapeutic role. The hairdresser has a direct
influence on maintaining the moral and psychological state of the client, his self-confidence,
satisfaction with his appearance. Medical component is also important: the hairdressing sphere
includes various medical procedures.
Hairdressers work in a variety of conditions — in large, medium, small or mobile salons, serve
customers at home. They can also work in companies representing a professional brand, educational
institutions, on television and in the cinema, in the theatre (which includes working with wigs). In
addition, the hairdresser can deal with hair transplantation, work as a technician or stylist on fashion
shows. Finally, he can take part in the research of cosmetic products or work in the field of design.
With regard to professional skills, hairdressers offer a wide range of services, including haircutting,
staining, styling, chemical transformation and various types of hair care. A hairdresser can have a
specialization, for example, be a master in male or female hairstyles, or be a colourist. Regardless of
this, he must have good management and communicative abilities, take care of clients, be able to
analyze hair types, work with cosmetics in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. In an ever-
changing job market, a hairdresser can work in a team or alone, or can combine both options from
time to time. Whatever the type of work, a well trained and experienced hairdresser takes on a high
level of personal responsibility and independence. The professional result depends on how the master
cares about the health and well-being of the client and how thoroughly and attentively he treats the
wishes of the client and the safety of work.
Since the market of visual images has become global, and people have begun to travel more,
hairdressers have more ways to realize themselves. Talented masters can show themselves in the
international arena, however, this entails the need to understand different cultures and trends. They
can implement their skills in the WorldSkills Competition, which identifies the most talented
representatives in the field of hairdressing.

3 ASSESSMENT STRATEGY AND TECHNICAL
FEATURES OF ASSESSMENT
3.1 MAIN REQUIREMENTS
The Strategy establishes the principles and techniques to which the WSR assessment and marking
must conform.
Expert assessment is the cornerstone of WSR competitions. For this reason, it is the subject of
continuous professional improvement and scrutiny. The accumulated assessment experience will
determine the future use and development direction of main assessment tools used on WSR
competitions: The Marking Scheme, competition task and Competition Information System (CIS).
Assessment on the WSR competitions falls within one of the two categories: measurements and jury's
decision. For both types of assessment, the use of explicit benchmarks against which to assess each
aspect is essential to guarantee quality.
The Marking Scheme must follow the WSJSS weightings. The Test Project is the assessment vehicle for
the skill competition, and should also follow the WSJSS. The CIS enables timely and accurate recording
of marks, and has an expansive supportive capacity.
The Marking Scheme, in outline, will lead the process of Test Project design. During the further
development the Marking Scheme and the Test Project will be designed and developed through an
interactive process in order to ensure joint optimization of inter-relations within the scope of the
WSJSS and the Assessment Strategy. They will be submitted to the Skill Competition Manager for
approval together in order to demonstrate their quality and conformity with the WSJSS.
Version: 1.0

4 MARKING SCHEME
4.1 GENERAL GUIDANCE
This section describes the role and place of the Marking Scheme, how the Experts will assess the
Competitor's work demonstrated through the Test Project performance, as well as the procedures and
requirements for marking.
The Marking Scheme is the main tool of WSR competitions and defines the compliance of the Test
Project assessment with the WSJSS. It is intended for the allocation of points between each assessed
aspect which can be related to only one WSJSS module.
Through the reflection of the weightings specified in the WSJSS, the Marking Scheme sets out the Test
Project development parameters. Depending on the skill nature and the requirements to its assessment
it can be helpful to develop the Marking Scheme in detail early on so it can be used as a guide for the
Test Project development. Otherwise the Test Project development shall be based on the generalized
Marking Scheme. Further development of the Test Project is accompanied by the development of
assessment criteria.
Section 2.1 specifies the maximum acceptable variation percentage, the Test Project Marking Schemes
based on the weightings provided in the Standards Specification.
The Marking Scheme and the Test Project may be developed by one person, or a group of Experts, or a
third-party developer. Detailed and final Marking Scheme and Test Project shall be approved by the
Skill Competition Manager.
Furthermore, all Experts are encouraged to submit their proposals on the development of marking
schemes and Test Projects to the Discussion Forum for their further review by the Skill Competition
Manager.
In all cases a complete marking scheme approved by the Skill Competition Manager shall be entered
into the CIS at least two days prior to the competition, with the use of a standard CIS spreadsheet or
other agreed-upon methods. The Chief Expert is responsible for this process.
4.2 ASSESSMENT CRITERIA

The main headings of the Marking Scheme are the assessment criteria. In some skill competitions
assessment criteria may match the WSJSS section headings; in others they may be completely
different. There are usually from five to nine assessment criteria, that said, there should be at least
three assessment criteria. Whether or not they match the headings, the Marking Scheme must reflect
the weightings specified in the WSJSS.
The Assessment Criteria are created by a person(s) developing the Marking Scheme, who is free to
define the criteria he or she considers most suited to the assessment of the Test Project performance.
The Mark Summary Form generated by the CIS will comprise a list of the assessment criteria.
The number of points allocated to each criterion is calculated by the CIS. This will be the cumulative
sum of points awarded to each aspect within that assessment criterion.
Version: 1.0
Date: 06.11.18
4.3 SUB CRITERIA
Each assessment criterion is divided into one or more sub criteria. Each sub criterion becomes a
heading in the Marking Scheme.
Each (sub criteria) marking form is specified with a certain date on which it will be filled.
Each (sub criteria) marking form contains assessable aspects that are subject to assessment. Each
assessment method is assigned with a special marking form.
4.4 ASPECTS
Each aspect describes in detail one of the assessed indicators, as well as possible marks or marking
instructions.
A marking form lists in detail each marked aspect together with the number of points allocated for its
assessment.
The sum of the points allocated to each Aspect must fall within the range of points specified for each
skill section in the WSJSS. It will be displayed in the CIS point allocation spreadsheet in the following
format:

4.5 JUDGEMENT ASSESSMENT
Decisions are made using a scale of 0–3. In order to apply the scale in a clear and consistent manner
the jury must carry out a decision with due regard to:
• (criteria) comparison standards as detailed guides to each aspect
• 0–3 scale, where:
0: performance does not meet the industry standard;
1: performance meets the industry standard;
2: performance meets and, in specific respects, exceeds the industry standard;
3: performance wholly exceeds the industry standard and is assessed as excellent
Each aspect is assessed by three Experts, each Expert must perform assessment, after that the alloted
marks will be compared. In case the Expert marks vary by more than 1 point, the Experts must bring
up the assessment of this aspect for discussion and eliminate the variance.
4.6 MEASUREMENT ASSESSMENT

Each aspect shall be assessed by three Experts. Unless otherwise specified, only the maximum mark or
zero will be awarded. If within some aspect it is possible to award marks below the maximum one, it
shall be described in the Marking Scheme with the specification of measurable parameters.
4.7 USE OF MEASUREMENT AND JUDGEMENT ASSESSMENTS

The final understanding of measurement and judgement assessments will become available after the
approval of the Marking Scheme and the Test Project. The provided table contains approximate
information and is intended for the development of the Marking Scheme and the Test Project.

4.9 ASSESSMENT STANDING ORDERS
The Chief Expert and the Deputy Chief Expert of the event shall discuss and divide the Experts into
groups (a group is composed of at least three people) for marking. Each group shall include at least
one experienced Expert. An Expert shall not score a Competitor from his own organization.
Procedure of work of judicial groups:
• Experts should have a clear understanding and fluency in terminology as well as know expected
results. Skill Manager approves the Test Project, assessment criteria and scoring, the list of materials
of each module.
• Before the beginning of each module there is a draw and numbering of mirrors of the Competitors.
• Experts who are members of the jury, as well as the site Manager (observer) should minimize the
conversations on the site during the Competition — it distracts the Competitors.
Scoring
• Points are scored "blindly".
• Experts engaged in judging during the Competition should be in a separate room (jury room), and
not in the competition area.
• While Experts are in the jury room, all tools and flags should be removed from the workstations of
the Participants so that there are no signs of belonging of works to the participants. Once this is
done, the judges can go to the competition site to score points "blindly."
• If the Expert evaluates the work of his participant, the score will not be counted. For this
Competitor the scores of the fourth judge will be counted.
• The members of the jury must leave the competition zone and proceed to a separate room (jury
room) for voting. The voting procedure is carried out by the Skill Manager, or the Chief Expert of
the Competition or his deputy.
• If independent representatives of the industry are involved in the event, the Skill Manager, in
conjunction with the skill management team, decides on an open form of judging, in which Experts
can display both the measurement score (scoring) and the judge's mark within one module.
This procedure is repeated for each job.
• E.g. When the first module is completed, the Experts come out and put the marks on each client.
• Experts will be divided into groups of Observers, the Jury awarding points, and the Jury performing
the judging, the groups will change by rotation.
• Experts who are not engaged in judging will also be divided into groups of Observers, the Jury that
award points and the Jury that performs the judging and will ensure that the Competitors strictly
follow the rules of the Competition.
• Experts who are not members of the jury and are not Observers should not be present at the
competition site during the Competition.
• When evaluation is completed, the Experts and Competitors can come to the competition area to
photograph the works.
• When all the Experts complete the assessment, they should sign their Assessment List and hand it
over to the Chief Expert of the Competition.
• The technical administrator of the site should deal with the documents and should not be on the
competition site without the appropriate request from the Skill Manager, the Chief Expert or the
Deputy Chief Expert.
• Free Experts should leave the competition site or remain in the Expert room prior to the disposal of
the Skill Manager, Chief Expert or Deputy Chief Expert.

Points awarding scale
Each job has the appropriate criteria, which are communicated to the Competitors and Experts before
the start of the competition. To fix penalty points (if any), the Jury that credits points will use the
Assessment Lists described earlier.
A full list of violations is approved by the general meeting of Experts at the C-2 level.
Penalty points
Penalty points can be charged in the following cases:
• Help or advice from Experts or from outside — out of the perimeter (viewers) — conversations of
the Competitors with the audience can be considered counseling. Any such cases are considered a
violation, or even an excuse for disqualification. The evidence of at least two Experts is required.
• The work performed should be a commercial image and meet industry standards
• It is not allowed to touch the head dummy after the end of the module, when the Competition
participants received an order to put aside the tools.
• It is not allowed to use materials, equipment, articles, tools or accessories that are not part of the
individual module of the Test Project. If the Competitor is notified of the use of the above
prohibited items, he will have to immediately stop using them, and he will be penalized. If the
Competitor continues to use the above prohibited items, for example, if he uses an oxidizing dye,
while the module allows only non-oxidizing dyes, the product will be removed from the
competition zone. In this case, at the subjective assessment, he will not be awarded points for this
section.
• Within the framework of each module, Competitors should create different styles of work; the
image of each module should be different from similar module, even when the tasks are similar in
content. If possible, the evaluation of the work will be carried out on the same day, to compare
similarities and differences.
• Non-compliance with sanitary norms, safety and labour protection standards.
• The completed work should be a commercial image and meet industry standards.
• The products used by the Competitors should be in the zone of visibility — it is prohibited to hide
the used products.
• Toolboxes (a case with tools) are checked at C-2 or on the day of training of Experts representing
their groups for the presence of prohibited products. If a prohibited product is found, it will be
removed from the competition zone.
• All participants of the competition should work only with professional products, in accordance with
the technology of the manufacturer.
• All Competitors should mix only the amount of product that is needed to complete the task, they
should avoid over-expenditure of the product. Bowls should be shown to the Expert before they are
washed. If the remains of the product in the bowl seem excessive, it will be weighed and if the
remainder is more than 10 grams, this will be considered a violation.
• The Competitor can apply make-up and drape his dummy for demonstration only after the jury
puts the marks.
• Competitors should treat the dummy as a client.
• If the Competitor has committed violations, the deduction will be made according to the criteria for
the calculation of points. The specific weight of the deduction will depend on the module. Each
task has a Jury, and violations should be witnessed by at least two members of this jury.
Completion of the image and impression
• The completed image should match the Description of the module.
Version: 1.0
Date: 06.11.18
• The general impression relates to the design elements used to create the finished image, including
the beard design (if applicable); taking into account the line, shape, balance, texture, integrity and
colour.
• When assessing the overall impression of haircuts and styling, it is the haircut and styling that is
taken into account, attention is drawn to the line, shape, balance and texture.

design, creativity and professional application of paint are taken into account (including attention
to the presence of dye traces along the hair growth line, on the scalp, face and neck of the
dummy).
• The general impression of the integration of various elements and ornaments into the image refers
to the integrity of the image reflected in form, balance and texture.
