Practicalities
Included in the fee
- Lunch and refreshments
- All makeup, lashes and hair products you practise with
- Training heads for hairstyling
- The full list of products and tools used, with high-end and budget options
All makeup, false eyelashes, hair pieces, padding, hair products tools and equipment will be provided for students to use during the course in their practice sessions. During the intensive bridal course you will be given full details of all products and tools used both high end and cheaper alternatives. A lot of information is covered therefore students should take suitable notes and photographs to assist in further practice after the course. For the first day you will be practising makeup techniques learnt on the course on a model which you can bring, or one can be provided for you for an extra fee of £60 per day. Training heads / mannequins will be provided for students to use during the hairstyling part of the course. It is not practical to use live models as multiple hairstyles are demonstrated and it is necessary to use different hair products and backcombing. Continuous backcombing and application of strong hair products on a live model would cause severe damage to the hair.
Models. Bring your own model, or we can provide one for £60 a day.
Certificate. Successful completion of the course rewards students with 3 accredited certificates: Asian Bridal Makeup, Asian Bridal Hairstyling, and Professional Standards for Therapists. Thus enabling students to apply for makeup discount schemes, and gain access to specialised tools and products from trade only companies for professional hairstylists. The course is accredited by the Guild of Beauty Therapists, one of the largest trade bodies in the beauty industry. Accredited certificates help to obtain liability insurance, discounts (upto 35%) from makeup brands, and access to specialised hairstyling products through trade only companies. Whereas, non-accredited courses run by many academies are unable to provide such benefits. The certificate costs £25.
Paying. Pay the deposit online to book your place, then pay the balance by the first day of the course. Terms and conditions.

What students said
“The intensive asian bridal hair and makeup course was everything I was looking for. Although I had done hair courses and makeup courses many years ago, I wanted a quick recap with all the knowledge of the new products and contemporary asian bridal makeup looks and hairstyles so that I could get into the industry again as my children were now all grown up. I found the course to be intense and packed with information that I was not aware of. I highly recommend this course for its content and the teacher’s sincereity in motivating the students to achieve. Nayyar, you are a wealth of knowledge.”

None of the dates suit me. Can I come on other days?
Possibly. Other dates can sometimes be arranged if you give us enough notice. Use the enquiry form on the course page and tell us which days work for you.
Do I need any experience?
No. Most of our makeup, hair, and hair and makeup courses are suitable for complete beginners as well as working artists who want to update their skills. The 2-day and 3-day Russian hairstyling courses are for stylists who already have some Russian hairstyling experience. We recommend starting with the 1-day introductory Russian course or the 4-day bridal hairstyling course.
How many students are in a class?
