KH Academy Training

What KH Academy do for the students during the first and second year?

During the first and second year, you will attend once a week at our KH Academy building located in Long Eaton and we will spend the day teaching you all aspects of hairdressing. Over time, we will go into more in depth hairdressing techniques that will be used during your time at one of our salons.

You will be working full time outside of these days spent at the academy at one of our franchised locations. You will at the salon you are accepted into, have one day a week dedicated to training you and helping become more skilled at hairdressing. This is just the beginning of a two-year journey to receive your NVQ Level 2 Diploma for Hair Professionals.

How will our apprentices receive these qualifications?

As you progress in your journey to become a hair stylist, you will be required to build and create a portfolio of your work. This will include written tests and additionally, a variety of hairdressing practical assessments.

In the first year at KH Academy, our students will learn about all things hairdressing, this includes largely the science behind hairdressing with a good mix of working on practical heads. In the second year of your course, you will make your way to the KH Academy once again to work on live models and create your own styles so you can achieve competent assessments. Once you finish both years of this course, you will take your End Point Assessment, and then receive your diploma. After this, you may have the opportunity to join our third year, where you can learn more advance methods of hairdressing and barbering.
