Being a mobile hairdresser is a great steppingstone between a career as a hair stylist and moving up the ladder to being a salon owner. You get all the flexibility of being your own boss without the worries of managing staff or renting a salon and you are still able to flex your creative muscles and help your clients feel amazing.
Be your own boss with your own salon and your own team. Many apprentices take this leap after completing their course and some decide the right time to do it is after earning their stripes in one of the multitudes of other careers available to them.
You will need to be a master of many skills to become a successful salon owner and an apprenticeship is an amazing place to learn the basics of all these.
Being a Brand Representative can be something you can do alongside your other career choice.
If you have found that you have a flair for being able to explain the benefits of the after-service products a move into a role as a brand representative could be the one for you.
Take the skills you have learnt and get them displayed on screen!
Being a stylist in the entertainment sector will bring something different with every new project each of which will push the skills you learnt in your apprenticeship to the limit and each of which will help you develop those skills even further.
Get your talent to take you around the world by starting a career as a cruise ship stylist.
These ships can take months or even years to complete their journey and during that time there could be thousands of people needing the skills of a qualified hair stylist to make sure they are ready for that invite to the Captains Table.
Are you more adept at passing on your skills and knowledge, do you like being able to give people a helping hand, do you think you would shine whilst teaching the next generation of stylists, then an educator role could be perfect for you.
Many educators keep their skills topped up by working part time as a stylist when they aren’t teaching and many employers are more than happy to accommodate that as well as helping their educators develop their own skills with professional development days and events.
Let’s start with the career most people associate with hairdressers. As a hair stylist you will be in a salon working your magic on clients from a wide range of backgrounds. You will have freedom to advise your clients on the best style for their hair and make those clients some of the happiest people in the world when they leave.
