Hair and Beauty Training

Who are we?

We are NSA STRIDES Alliance, we are a project based in the grounds at the rear of Sandfields Comprehensive School.  We provide confidence building and support to help you to gain basic skills and qualifications.

What Qualifications do we provide?

OCN’s – Open College Network.
These are bite size taster sessions enabling you to gain basic qualifications in hair and beauty. You can use these qualifications as stepping stones to help into further education, to help secure a work placement or permanent employment.
OCN’s show the colleges and employees that you have a basic understanding of the hair and beauty industry and will be an advantage when applying for college or employment. Even if you are not ready for employment come along, meet new friends and get pampered!

How long is the course?

The length of the course can vary between 6-8weeks enabling you to learn at your own pace, extra support is available if needed.

What does a typical Hair & Beauty Taster Course consist of?

There are many options that you can choose from:

  • Make-up application
  • Facials
  • Manicures
  • Blow-drying and Hair styling

 
What do I do at the end of the course?

After your course is complete we will forward you on to our NSA employment team where you will receive support and advice to find employment or go onto further education.

Here are some comments from the girls already on the hair and beauty course

A brilliant course to take if you are interested in the hair and beauty world. I have really enjoyed the course, I have learnt new things that even if I choose not to go in to the business I can use on my everyday life. I have enjoyed meeting new people and improving my communication skills. We get to try out all the skills that we learn on ourselves and get pampered.  Kirsty

A very fun and interesting course to take for hair and beauty. I have learned lots of new skills which I can take with me to start up my own beauty business after the course has finished.  Met some great people on the course and I also love getting pampered every week by the girls. Steph.

If Your interested in hair and beauty, this is the course for you, it’s a brilliant way to meet new people, I have really enjoyed the course and learnt loads of new skills that can benefit me in getting my own business or a job in a salon, the best thing about the course is all the treatments get practised on you and for free , so every week we get pampered. Dawn

I’ve really enjoyed the course and I’m happy with what I’ve learnt.  I’ve loved having the girls pampering me and I’ve picked up so much in the few weeks I been here and I can walk away with a few skills to go on to working in a salon. Claire.
