Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I have recently completed an apprentice at George’s Hairdressing (Heart of England Training) and I can confidently say it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my career. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was welcomed with warmth, professionalism, and an energy that made me feel inspired and motivated.
The team are not only highly skilled and experienced but also genuinely passionate about teaching. They go above and beyond to ensure every student feels supported, understood, and challenged to grow. Each lesson is thoughtfully structured, combining hands-on practice with essential theory, and there’s a strong focus on current trends and techniques, which keeps the training fresh and industry-relevant.
What really sets this academy apart is the environment — it’s vibrant, encouraging, and empowering. You’re not just another student here; you’re treated like a future professional, and the staff truly invest in your success. Whether you’re just starting out or advancing your skills, this is the place to do it.
Thanks to George’s training academy, I now feel confident, capable, and excited for the future. I’d recommend this academy to anyone serious about making their mark in the hair industry
