The Academy recognises the need to make their students education as commercially relevant as possible in order to ensure students leave with a great CV and are fully equipped to embark on a fantastic career.

Enrolments are under way now for the new Academic year. Today’s salons have become more diverse, now offering both hair and beauty services to their clients. We at Gainfort Academy recognise this, and in turn have developed unique packages giving students the qualifications and extra techniques they need to be sought after by top salons and spas. With full time and part time options available in our hair and beauty courses, we can ensure there is something to suit everyone.
