After this Level 3, you will be ready to start working as a Senior
Stylist or Advanced Hairdresser, either in a salon or similar environment
or through self-employed work. The qualification equips you to start your
own salon.
With a Level 3 qualification, you can progress to roles such as a
senior stylist in various settings, including commercial hair salons, specialist
salons.
You might choose to specialise in areas like bridal hairstyling,
colour correction, or creative cutting techniques. Opportunities exist in
a range of industries such as television, film, theatre, media, cruise
liners, hospitals, care homes, the Armed Services, and HM Prison
Service.
Working with product manufacturers as a technician or
trainer is another avenue.
You can also go onto further study in this area, such as a specialised
apprenticeship or at university to hone your skills. You could also pursue
advanced studies such as the Level 4 Diploma in Salon Management or Advanced
Techniques and Management Practice in Hairdressing.
