Zainab was invited to attend summer introductory workshops and a Saturday Academy to prepare her for her college course - her pathway to a dream career in hairdressing.
鈥淚 got the chance to meet my lecturer and work with her one-on-one and the academy meant I could meet the rest of my classmates, and work on strengths and weaknesses,鈥 she said.
鈥淭his helped me so much and I felt so welcomed before starting full-time in September.鈥
She said 蜜桃传媒 had 鈥渁mazing鈥 facilities.
鈥淗ere, we learned how to cut and colour a client鈥檚 hair including gents鈥 hair, and learned the theory too, the science of hair,鈥 she said.聽
鈥淲e have also had opportunities to go to London and Blackpool to see hair shows and even take part in competitions around the country, helping me grow and become more confident.
鈥淲e have a two-week placement yet to complete, in which we visit a salon of our choice to get a taste of what the real world of working is like.聽
鈥淚 am a naturally creative person and hairdressing has always been a passion of mine. This course has enabled me to explore more styles and techniques and has tons to offer.鈥
