It's not too late to apply for a course to start this September!
I would recommend doing a hairdressing course at LMC, I learnt so many skills over the time I attended that I can carry through my career as a hair stylist.
Izzy chose to study Hairdressing at Lancaster & Morecambe College because she described it as offering a great learning environment within The Salon at the College.
After starting at LMC in 2019, throughout the course, Izzy learnt the key skills which encouraged her to become more confident in what she was doing, and also developed a more professional approach to hairdressing. One of the most important skills she learnt was how to deal with working under pressure, which is a huge factor within the hairdressing industry.
The best parts about my course at LMC was definitely the practical salon training, as I really enjoyed working on clients in The Salon at College.
Finishing her course in early 2022 at Prestige Hairdressing Salon, Izzy explains that continually uses all the skills she learnt at LMC in the role as a Hair Stylist. Izzy described her biggest accomplishment since leaving LMC is that she has developed as a stylist and is continuing to learn new techniques each month.
When asked what advice she would give someone considering applying for Hairdressing Apprenticeship course at LMC, Izzy said:

It’s really difficult to state just one thing I love about working at Lancaster & Morecambe College because there are so many!

I love introducing new ways of working and keeping up with relevant trends to improve the course, and I really enjoy the supportive environment that we create for our students. We also work closely with our Pastoral Mentors and Apprenticeship Progress Coaches to support our students academically as well as look after their wellbeing too.
LMC is a great community asset and I think the local district are lucky to have such a modern, flexible and engaging place of education.
I enjoy sharing my knowledge and experience of animals with students and seeing a learners journey as they make progress.
