tammy-jarrett

If you’re looking for a refresher or new career then this is a fantastic site for courses. This is the second course I’ve done on this site and they are very in depth and I’ve learned so much. Very pleased. Would highly recommend.

Will be looking to do more courses in the future. Not only have I achieved two certifications but I’ve got new services to offer in my salon for all my clients. My salon has never been so busy and I’m even taking lots of bookings for the future.

Would recommend to all!

I really enjoyed the course and would recommend this to my friends

margaret-whitehead

I really enjoyed the course and would recommend this to my friends.

I completed a City and Guilds Certificate 40 years ago and was looking at bringing my skills up to date. This gave me the encouragement and insight to do what I needed to go back into hairdressing. I understand the importance of keeping my skills up to date and would like to study further in styling, hair treatment and coloring.

Thank you very much I enjoyed the 27 modules attached to the course. I particularly enjoyed the videos attached to the course and have always enjoyed putting hair up for special occasions such as weddings.
