    No, but if you're quick and you can find a college of FE in Cambridge offering courses in hairdressing then they often work out well as long as you don't mind it taking time. The students are usually well supervised and only let loose once they are competent!

    Alternatively look around local salons asking for models.

    I would second going around asking whether salons need models. I've had my hair cut for free for years that way. Some do have a minimum charge, so it's worth looking around. I've honestly had some better haircuts as a model than paying full price with a hairdresser.

    THe only things are, the times can be awkward, and you get the haircut that the apprentice is studying, so you won't get the fancy or creative cutting techniques.

    Toni and Guys modelling takes ages, as the student cuts a section, then has to go off to find a senior to check it, then cuts another section, then goes off to find a senior to check it.......................................:rolleyes::rolleyes: Smaller salons are usually faster and easier.
