It is for this reason that the Hair, Barbering and Beauty Sector (HBB) have chosen not to be overly prescriptive about entry requirements. The training provider and employer are advised to use a range of initial assessment techniques to identify any support needs for the Apprentice from the start of the apprenticeship. This will ensure that those who begin, have the potential to complete the programme. It is advantageous to have had previous experience of working within the hairdressing or Barbering industry.
