Level 2 Diploma In Women's And Men's Hairdressing (city & Guilds)
This course gives you the knowledge and skills to work with a large variety of hair types and develops your awareness of the industry.
We have plenty of professional suppliers delivering in-house, bespoke training on latest products and equipment, This is boosted by employers and salon owners giving demonstrations and talks on making it in the sector. You'll get plenty of work experience in our commercial salon and we also run trade tests for employers - in fact many of our previous students have moved to full-time and part-time work after this.
We run several internal competitions including the London Masters where we invite other London colleges in so that you compete against your peers - the judges are normally employers and industry specialists. There are also local and national competitions that you'll get involved with, including the prestigious WorldSkills which our students have entered several years in a row. It's a great way to learn and to be exposed to new experiences.
With our masterclasses throughout the year, you'll have the chance to build your skills and experience on top of your normal classes. This is your chance to pick up all the latest salon trends and make sure you're work-ready when you graduate. If you become one of our top-performing students, there's the added incentive of learning through our in-house graduate programme to boost your practical skills.
