Programme Description

This is the perfect way to learn about two busy and exciting career pathways before deciding whether you want to be a hairdresser or a beauty therapist. You’ll learn some of the anatomy and physiology behind what qualified stylists and therapists do and gain some skills in both these areas. There is a project on make-up and design and your learning is all in the context of a retail salon. This covers how to deal with customers and handle payments - skills employers are always looking for.
