Education has been a fast-growing topic in the hairdressing industry in recent years as many hairdressers are becoming more aware of how it can contribute to their career progression.
Hairdressing is undoubtedly a skilled job that requires passion, hands-on practice, talent and experience. However, without quality education, there is a limit to what one can learn and understand. A hairdresser with years of experience knows that multiple bleaching can damage the hair, but may not be able to explain to customers why this is so.
With today’s ever evolving hair trends and techniques, there is no end to learning no matter how many years of experience you have in the industry. Hair education can start from the basics, leading up to master classes, and regular upgrading of skills.
In Volume 2 of our Education Issue, professionals from hair salons, institutes and organisations share their views on the importance of education, what kind of education is necessary for the industry, and insights to the hairdressing occupation.

Common problems faced by hairstylists…
Finding the perfect balance between what is trending and what suits their clients in their everyday, busy life.
Is hairdressing a struggling or glamorous occupation?
Hairdressing is not all glamour, it is a lot of hard work over long hours! It is, however, an extremely gratifying occupation. A hairdresser is your best friend, somebody who understands your needs/ desires and creates a look that is completely individualistic.
What is considered “real education” in hairdressing to you?
“Real Education” is guiding the hairdresser through the latest techniques and giving them the correct product knowledge on how to achieve the desired results.
How can product companies and hairdressing academies work together to provide a wellrounded hairdressing education to aspiring and existing hairstylists?

Summer Hair Care
Just as the sun damages your skin, it can damage your hair too. Saltwater and chlorine also take a toll on our tresses. A few weeks into summer, hair that was once shiny and easily managed looks and feels fried. Hair damage is most obvious when we see colourtreated hair becoming faded, bleached, and brassy. Even hair that isn't coloured will suffer from suninduced stress. Those UV rays dry out hair and rough up the normally smooth cuticle of the hair shaft.
Why Is Your Hair Dry?
Do you dream of having the luxurious, silky hair of a shampoo model instead of dry hair? Understanding the root cause of dry hair and taking action may be all you need to get the locks you long for.
Thinning Hair Tips

The Singaporean Hair Dressing Industry
I’ve always liked to link the food and beverages industry to the hair industry as they both have very humble beginnings, both driven by passionate people and both employ people from all skill levels. However, the general population has a vastly different perception, with the main distinction that they eat 2-3 times a day while only visiting a salon once a month, or even once a year, they have very little interest in the hair industry.
