This Course is aimed at a Foundation Level for people with some experience in hairdressing who wish to Specialise in Men’s Hairdressing.
The programme runs 3 days per week and students will learn every aspect of men’s hair cutting/barbering with a big emphasis on live models. The programme is a Practical Experiential Based course as the most important thing when you apply for a job or cut a paying customer’s hair is not what you say but what you can do with scissors, clippers, razor and comb.
You will build up a portfolio of your work which includes photographs, head sheets and written analysis of each haircut.
Course content:
- Health and Safety

During this last period of the programme you will be combining all the techniques you have learned and also building your confidence in doing multiple models to build up the level of experience required when working in a Men’s Salon/Barber Shop.
