About Us

A little more about us, how we got here, our team & where we're going.

After 32 years in the hairdressing industry, we thought it about time to begin sharing some of the knowledge we’ve accumulated over the decades. SO! This 2023 we made the decision to found the MAJOR Academy. A place where people of all abilities can come and educate themselves on the industry of hair.

Whether you’ve never picked up a pair of hairdressing scissors or you’re already a seasoned professional looking to brush up on some of your techniques, we have courses to suit all abilities to achieve every success. Welcome to the MAJOR Hairdressing Academy.

Testimonials

Throughout my training programme I gained a lot of experience and knowledge on all things from cutting to colouring. I was guided by the education team through technical cuts such as graduated bobs and gents cuts. I also have loved learning how to create creative colours and balayage. I would definitely recommend MAJOR.
