Amy has done it, she's a fully qualified hairdresser!

She’s only gone and done it! Our super star apprentice (not any more) is officially a qualified hairdresser!!

It’s not been an easy 2 years with all the stopping and starting however Amy smashed her final assessment with flying colours (quite literally).


Me and Alex are so proud of what she has achieved, we are very excited and looking forward to seeing Amy’s career flourish as a hairdresser. Well done for sticking at it when times were hard and overcoming the hurdles along the way.
Amy is so driven and I know that she will be thinking of what’s next… but sometimes we have to pause and enjoy the moment, take stock of what you have achieved and celebrate!

So a massive well done Amy, you are a superstar and we are lucky to have you on the team! x 👏🍾💇‍♀️

Step Up & Shine - What an amazing year!

 
 

Well, that is my Step Up and Shine Scholarship done and dusted… and what a year it has been!

It all started with uploading a minute long video to Instagram for my entry, explaining why I love hairdressing and what I’d want to achieve if I won the scholarship.

It was so exciting when I found out I had been invited to the president’s night in London, I never thought I’d even get through never mind win it! The whole night was fantastic, from getting all dressed up, the 3 course meal, drinks and of course being awarded my scholarship was definitely the highlight of the night and I loved that my mum and boss were there to celebrate with me.

I’ve been very busy over the last year, from a styling session at GHD, a creative colouring course at L’Oreal, a weekend at Salon International which included promoting the scholarship on the Fellowship Hair stage with Debbie G, a full week down in London at the Vidal Sassoon Academy on a cutting course and I’ve just completed my last course which was advanced colouring with Jack Howard at L’Oreal.

I think winning the scholarship has really helped me as an individual, as at the time I won it I was going through quite a challenging time personally. It has really helped boost my confidence as a hairdresser and give me the push I needed to get things done and go on courses I never really thought I’d be able to do. I’m so grateful for everything that Debbie G and everyone at the Fellowship has done for me over the last year, it’s been amazing!

Evie wins Step Up and Shine Scholarship

Evie had an amazing night at the Fellowship for British Hairdressing, Presidents Night in London. She won the Step Up and Shine scholarship!

Step up and Shine is a national competition that gives one lucky hairdresser with a passion for education and learning, an opportunity to improve their skills. Evie will now begin a year long educational journey with training mentor Debbie Gee, where she will go on courses of her choice to develop her skills as a hairdresser even more!
