From next week, our apprentices won’t need to attend sessions, giving you some rest from us for the busiest time in your salons. While workshops take a break, our team will still be visiting salons and supporting apprentices on site, making sure everyone is ready for a strong start next year.

For our full-time learners you are still required to attend the academy training sessions up until Friday 19th December.

Keep an eye on your emails for updates, including next year’s planner and exciting news for 2026. We can’t wait to welcome you all back in January and continue your learning journey!

Congratulations Lucy!

Well done to our four learners who have successfully passed their End Point Assessments. A brilliant achievement and a reflection of all the hard work you’ve put in.

Thank you to the businesses who have supported them throughout their journey.

Our level 3 learner, Caitlin, transformed this client’s outgrown roots, natural greys, and box-dyed blonde ends with a full head of highlights. Using a 2:1 ratio of highlights to lowlights in ashy level 5 and following the natural grey pattern, she toned it with Moroccanoil Color Calypso 9GyV + 10GyV for a seamless, blended finish. Finished off with a smooth and sleek blow dry ✨
