Free haircuts - Worcester college hair and beauty training salon

Worcester college have a beauty spa and training salon - noticed a leaflet in Worcester yesterday saying during Jan, Feb and March they are offering free haircuts.

These would be with a student/trainee hairdresser fully supervised by a tutor.

In know a lot of colleges have salons open to the public and you can get very cut price treatments. I use to go for haircuts and colours and manicures etc in the past when I was a student and saved a fortune.

Typically the college I work in does not do hair/beauty treatments which is a shame as Id go for treatments if I could.

Anyway the Worcester salon website is

A good way to save money and gives the students experience/practice:D

    Hope you get on well, not been since refit but must do now they are open Sats as I work in a college so dont get much time to go!

    Im thinking now it must of been in the copy of Worcester life or one of those free magazines I read whilst having lunch Sat in Chesters! It did say free cuts - but I think that could be with level 1 students? Im sure level 3 are more like £10?

    Yes it takes ages but often very good results and so cheap! plus I like to help the students out its a good fun atmosphere too - Id go more if i had the time round work/travel. Last haircut I had I was not happy with and average prices seem £30 - £45 in salons these days:eek:

  • good old chesters!
    I haven't seen the latest copy of worc life but I may phone up and ask them. ive booked in with a level 3 but if the level 1 is free I might aswell swap it to save soem cash! i went for the level 3 to save time.
    its lovely in there and really smart,ive used it a couple of times and they use top of the range products(they did the last time i was there).
    i got my last haircut free at toni and guy as a model and they give you lots of free mochas etc whilst your there,you just have t phone up.
    I hadn't realised it was open on saturdays.
    Its a small world coming on mse to find posts about your local college!
  • I've just booked to have my hair done in my uni/college salon in Birmingham at UCB today. Theyre currently doing 50% off all treatments so am getting my long hair highlighted for £8 :)
