    Don't know about hairdressing but my son was an Electricians Apprentice and recieved £127 per fortnight. This included £20 per fortnight for college fares (he went once per week). He was 17.
    Also there was an advert in our local for an Apprenticehip with our local council and that said £50 per week.
    A quick google search threw this up

    and Hairdressing in Sussex is around £80 per week
    Good Luck

    isnt the minimum around 60 a week? however i believe it is up to the employer how much they pay so it will vary from place to place.
