What our students say
Rebecca Stephenson – Hairdressing: Current Techniques (SCQF Level 6)
The support I received was amazing. I wouldn't have done Level 5 and progressed onto Level 6 without the support I had.
The knowledge you get alongside the practical things really does help you gain confidence for the things you're doing alongside having the knowledge to be the best Hairdresser you can be.
Emma Geddes – Hairdressing: Foundation (SCQF Level 5)
I have really enjoyed my experience making new friends and bonds with the lectures. It has really helped my overall knowledge and skills improve and made me feel more confident in what I do and how I have improved.
I don’t think I would have been able to get though my course without the support I had from before.
Erin Williams – Hairdressing: Foundation (SCQF Level 5)
I feel like I have gained a lot more communication with clients and listening skills, before college I was not the best at taking onboard what people would be telling me.
I felt like the support given from the lecturers was very good and they were always there when you need them, I feel everyone received the same amount of support.
