    • The course is well organised and covers all the skills you need to become a barber. The teaching is structured so everyone can learn at their own pace and there’s plenty of opportunity to put your skills into practice in the on-site salon. I want to complete my Level 3 qualification next, to further expand the techniques I’ve already learnt. My long-term goal is to have my own barbers and be a one-stop shop for male grooming.

      Lee Renshaw – Barbering Level 2

    • I always wanted to be a hairdresser and decided to take the plunge and do my training three years ago. I’ve progressed from the Entry Level Course right through to the Level 3, learning new techniques and adding to my skill set each year. I wish I’d done the course years ago – I would definitely recommend it! I’m hoping to open my own salon very soon.
