The re-emergence of the barbershop has led to the need for specialist barbering skills for men, cutting and clipping, and maintaining facial hair. The Gordon offers specialist barber training to deliver the required skills. You will learn about men’s grooming services, shaving and freehand clipper work, and Pivot Point resources.
You will have real-life opportunities to develop skills in session styling in live photoshoots, catwalk parades, and on-film locations at events and industry excursions.
