Ever since I went on work experience at School I have always wanted to become a hair stylist. I enrolled at Lisburn campus this year on the recommendation of my careers officer who said that I would be able to study hairdressing on a full time basis there.
I am really enjoying the course, particularly the colouring aspects and also the fact that the Institute has its own working salon, so I am getting experience of working with the public.
At some stage in the future I would really love to work behind the scenes at catwalk shows and events like The Clothes Show as a hair stylist – I know there is a lot of competition for jobs like this but I think with the teaching that I am receiving at the moment I will get a good start on the rest!
