Skills

Since September 2025, I have been attending an after‑school Cutting Club at The Grove Experience salon in Eastbourne, for two hours a week This has given me valuable hands‑on experience in a real salon environment, where I have learned skills such as hair washing, blow drying, styling, cutting, and colouring

I have loved being part of a salon team and getting a true feel for day‑to‑day salon life I am polite, friendly, I have great communication skills, and I enjoy working alongside others I am also creative and artistic and really enjoy practical, hands‑on learning

I have been passionate about hair for many years and know this is a career I am very eager to pursue Although I have secured a place at college to study hairdressing, I am keen to gain an apprenticeship as I feel I would learn best by working hands‑on in a salon and developing my skills further
