Gents’ hairdressing experts in Blandford Forum, Dorset

Hairdressing is a hugely rewarding career - it’s sociable and creative and since hair stylists are always in demand, it’s an industry full of employment opportunities too. In fact, hairdressers are the happiest workers in the UK, according to City & Guilds. We’ve already talked about what you can expect from a career in hairdressing, so if you’re interested in becoming a hair stylist, there are a few steps you need to take. You can’t teach affability and a willingness to learn – these are the fundamental skills that any prospective hairdresser needs just to get started. On top of that, you’ll need to learn the technical skills – like cutting, colouring and styling hair – that are associated with the job. There are several routes you can take to become a hairdresser. These are the most common ways to get into the industry.
