Hairdressing is an expanding and rewarding area to find employment. Once qualified, there are many opportunities including teaching, training or setting up your own business. As an accredited Wella Centre of Excellence in Hairdressing, we have very strong links to industry and are always developing new and exciting courses to keep up-to-date with trends. We also offer a comprehensive Apprenticeship scheme, and opportunities for training in both our own and commercial salons. Our hairdressing courses cater for all levels of experience and will provide you with the knowledge and expertise to work in a salon. |

Leicester College salons are located at Freemen’s Park Campus. These offer a realistic setting for our learners and provide clients with value-for-money hairdressing and beauty therapy. |
