Hair and Beauty

Hair and Beauty offers learners to work within a fully functioning salon. Learners can practice and refine skills that are used in high street salons and barbers all of which allows for opportunities to achieve a NCFE L1 Occupational Studies for the Workplace.

Units include:

• Styling women’s hair
• Styling men’s hair
• Colour hair using temporary colour
• Nail art application
• Basic make-up application

The NCFE Level 1 Occupational Studies for the Workplace qualifications have been designed for accreditation to the Qualifications and Credit Framework (QCF) within Foundation Learning.

The qualifications are intended to be accessible to a wide range of learners of all abilities. Learners can develop a ‘hands on’ approach to their learning and gain practical skills, knowledge and understanding in their chosen vocational area(s). The skills, knowledge and understanding gained may help learners prepare for work through real or simulated work situations and may contribute to preparing them for working life beyond education.
