Course Overview
The Level 2 Diploma in Hairdressing will help you to develop the skills to become a successful Hairdresser within this exciting and fashion orientated industry. Whilst providing you with the opportunities to work with professional hair brands like L’Oreal.

Throughout this qualification, learners will develop their knowledge and understanding of relevant anatomy and physiology and will acquire knowledge of all relevant testing together with health, safety and legislation requirements necessary for a hairstylist.

You will also develop the knowledge, understanding and skills to consult with clients, provide a range of basic cutting, colouring and lightening services as well as skills in setting, dressing and blow-drying hair.

In parallel, you will develop communication and customer service skills, awareness of environmental sustainability and problem solving skills all of which are valued highly by employers.

There will be opportunities to compete locally and nationally in prestigious hairdressing competitions.

In addition to the Level 2 Hairdressing qualification, you will also be required to complete the following:
