About the course

The Hairdressing Professional Apprenticeship provides comprehensive training in the skills and techniques required for a successful career in hairdressing. The course covers hair cutting, colouring, and styling, along with an understanding of the latest trends and products in the industry. Apprentices learn to consult with clients, provide personalized hair care advice, and deliver high-quality services that meet client expectations. The apprenticeship also includes training in health and safety, customer service, and business skills, preparing apprentices to work in a salon or even start their own business. By the end of the program, apprentices will have the practical skills and professional knowledge needed to excel in the hairdressing industry.
