So that's where Boris Johnson gets his hair done :wink:

So do I book online or just walk in on whichever day?

LOL love it.

Thank you.

Toni and Guy Training School did this in the 1980s. It was an experience and my hair always looked fantastic. They did have an upper age limit. So now I would be considered too old.

Is this a "white people thing"? I'm interested but I don't want to get screwed, the reason I ask is because all their models on their site are all white people. Would be nice to see some non-white examples and what they can do with different types of hair.

Keep voting UKIP and you'll start seeing this question on HotUKDeals more often.

You'll need to call up and make an appointment. Download the free or £3 promotion thing and bring it along too - click on one of the 3 pictures to get it sent to your email.

The academy's students and clientele are international, just like London. Call up and ask the receptionist if the students have been trained to care for your hair type.

Not sure I get it. Is the creative for ladies only? Right next to it there is Men haircut for £3.
Would be great if it could work on a Saturday, but most likely won't take appointments in high turnaround days

" Is this a white people thing " No and if i would have put is this a black people thing god help me one rule & all that oO

You just did.

not bad for who has some time ..

As a white person, I don't see anything wrong with that question. Black hair is very different to style and can take longer, so it's not surprising they asked.

In additional to this, it's worth asking at your own salons (whenever they may be) for the cost of trainees. At my salon, I pay £25 for half head highlights and cuts are free with the trainee. It's all supervised by senior staff and the job is fantastic and saves me around £70 per visit.

Not even close to being the same thing!!! Black people don't have a wel documented history of oppression and exclusion.

Also not just a white people thing I have a mass of scary spice curls and I've had my hair done there loads of time. Just be warned that they will work with your hair texture so dont expect to have a blow dry and cut.

Wouldn't have thought so, my god daughter did a hairdressing course and was always on the lookout for all different types and ages of models.

Exactly!.

And like the original commenter said from the beginning, had it not been for the Company's hair model 'preferences' upon their own web site etc, then such notable comment's wouldn't have seen the need to be given the time of day in the first place ...

Or am I mistaken?.

(Cause and effect, and all that ..... )

I went to the Academy about 15 years ago when I was a student, they didn't appear to have an age limit back then as a lady who looked in her 70's was frequently there (I kept going back because they wanted me on their books as a hair model for advertising and they paid me) I have no idea if the rules have changed since then, maybe phone and ask them first? Can't see why they would though- everyone of every age seems on trend now and unless hair stops growing after the age you were told, I can't understand why they'd put a limit on the age range especially if they are advertising for models- this normally means they don't have enough people signing up.

I will say though; you need to allow *a lot* of time for this (unless the method has changed). They never finished my hair within a few hours (3 or 4 was a good day) and if you found yourself being used as an example by the teacher, it would take even longer (though your hair would be more likely to look better IME!) They like to take their time because precision seems to be everything and it can feel really tedious and frustratingly slow, so if you are not OK with this, maybe try a regular salon looking for hair models.

Also; if you were set on a specific style, it might not happen. In my experience the opening question to anyone was always "are you open to change?" which really just meant, are you precious about your hair because if you are this is not the place for you. They used to have some very bizarre cuts back when I was going there, all very experimental and great if you have the confidence to pull it all off. On the plus side they will explain and describe what they are going to try to cut, but if you are not sure you are "open to change", and unless the rules on cuts has changed, you will probably save yourself a lot of time and energy by not signing up.

Thank you for your response.

It is funny

Problem with these haircuts is that it takes 2 hours

Wrong company, that's Vidal Baboon. Sounds similar but different target market.

haha nice find op

apparently they have a requirement for hair length for male models. Called and got refused :disappointed:

should be long...medium ?

Thank you!

As white people we aren't allowed to be offended by anything even if it's offensive.

Quite the opposite when it's the other way round. Certain people go out their way to pretend to be offended.

MOWO awards anyone?

went there once eons ago when still had enough hair

Made my day LOL

cold as its just in "london town"

Voted hot. Used to do this all the time when I was young and living in London. Good to know it's still available for when I might go up for the Theatre or something.
After the total faff and precious snowflake attitude having colour done at the local college I wouldn't trust them to cut my hair. Sassoons however is still a benchmark for quality cut.

Where else would it be? London is the only place in the UK :sunglasses:

Very tempting! I don't mind a radical cut but would not be happy looking like an idiot/ mental patient afterwards.
Does anyone know if you do have a say when you get the "creative cut"?
