Combers Hairdressing Academy
Investing in the Hairdressing Superstars of the Future
The Combers Outside-In Hairdressing Academy was established in 2018 to give young people comprehensive training as they worked towards the Level 2 NVQs in Hairdressing to qualify as a hairdresser.
Our aim at the outset was to develop and fast-track young people to become elite stylists - the hairdressing superstars of tomorrow. We have poured investment, patience and love into nurturing young talent and have seen our apprentices grow and blossom.
Of course we want our stylists to be the best of the best so we set high standards for all our hairdressing apprentices. It takes commitment, discipline, teamwork and a willingness to listen and learn to make it through our course.


fast-track apprenticeships
During their apprenticeships, our apprentices must show a strong commitment to developing their craft. We give them access to hands-on practical training and theoretical learning as they work towards achieving their qualifications in Hairdressing.
They learn about every aspect of hairdressing and working in a successful salon environment from hair cutting, styling, colouring, and the science of hair, to anatomy and health.
A commitment and passion for the industry are vital. Hairdressing requires long hours on your feet, attention to detail, and a genuine interest in fashion and beauty trends. Developing good interpersonal skills is also crucial, as building a rapport with clients can significantly enhance their experience and your reputation as a stylist.
Progressing to NVQ Level 3 in Hairdressing involves more advanced techniques and a deeper understanding of the business aspects of hairdressing, such as managing a salon.
