Looking back, do you think doing an apprenticeship has enabled you to make a bigger success of your career?
Yes! It definitely put me on the right path. Also, working in London and having the London lifestyle made me more confident and outgoing.
“Stephanie is one of the most hard-working, dedicated members of the team. She developed a passion and flair for extensions.”
Heather
Heather

Why did you choose the apprenticeship route, rather than studying hairdressing at college?
I wanted real life experiences and I loved the idea of being in a work environment. Being at the heart of a busy salon atmosphere inspired and motivated me.

What would you say to a 16-year-old who’s working out a future career path?
I would say it’s a job with such potential, providing endless opportunities and experience at every step. But be sure you’re passionate, as it’s hard work at the beginning.
“He has real talent for men’s grooming and it’s very rare to find someone who is equally as comfortable with both male and female clients.”
