Hi Zeban


There different routes, in the hair dressing trade you can find a hair dresser that will train you up and send you to college on day release or you can apply directly to the colleges you will need NVQ qualification I have listed below some colleges that do hair dressing courses. I have friends who are hair dressers which went down both routes hope this is helpful.


? London College of Fashion

? London Hair School

? Waltham Forest Collage

? South Thames College

How to become a hair dresser,

1. have a lobotomy.

2. learn to speak shite for an hour at a time to the adjacent equally gormless hairdresser.

3. cut hair anyhow without paying the slightest attention to what you are doing whilst constantly ignoring the 'victim'.

4. burn the scalp with the dryer.

5. smile at the customer when they arrive at the till to entice a larger tip.

6. snigger and smirk to other hairdressers as you relieve the sap of a small fortune.

7. go out the back for a fag whilst next sap/victim sits and waits for another twenty minutes!



'Voila' one hairdressing professional.

Hmmm, I get the impression you think that makes you sound clever, but if you are even remotely serious about your experience, it just makes you a fool for not going somewhere better.


My hairdresser is fab and was really cool when I first went to see him while suffering from alopecia (i.e. was partly bald) and helped me with styling my hair to hide it the best I could while it got worse. Fortunately am now recovered, but I wouldn't dream of going elsewhere, trust him implicitly. Always get complements after every visit.

Lol, I did that as a kid - trying for the rapunzel look, refusing to let my mum cut my hair so it would reach past my waist.


But with naturally wild hair that just meant split ends and a tendency to tangles that led to hair being in plaits most of the time to prevent them.

      Why would mice move? It’s not so much they move as multiply and spread    copy and paste rather than cut and paste  mice can and should be dealt with.  But not easily or with guarantees  i would say most people in se22 reading this have mice. Whether they know it or not

      If a food outlet has a mouse problem then it's likely to stay there until the outlet runs out of food, unless it's adjacent to other food outlets. Why would the mice move? And mice can be dealt with. If you are prepared to pay for it. Which, with some proprieters, is a very big if. I have no evidence that the problem has reoccured in its new inception, although obviously good owners keep the focus on good hygiene. You win the battle but the war continues.
