3pm = SKILLS BOOST

Every day at 3pm, we press pause on the salon floor, put our tools down and invest in something just as important, our knowledge.

Last week’s skills boost was perm it!

Our learners took part in The Perming Games, rotating through interactive stations where they:
- filled in the missing terminology
- matched key perming descriptions to the correct terms
- demonstrated their practical skills using a variety of perm rods

Points were awarded for correct answers, sectioning, application and overall technique, adding a little healthy competition along the way!

Learning doesn’t have to be boring. At JET, we believe the best education is engaging, hands-on and fun.

YOUR SAFETY AND WELLBEING MATTER

At JET Hairdressing Academy, we are committed to ensuring every learner feels safe, supported, and knows how to report any welfare or safeguarding concerns.

If you need support or wish to raise a concern, you can contact our dedicated safeguarding team at:

📧 [email protected]

Our Learner and Employer Handbooks also include contact details for local and national support organisations, so help is always available when it’s needed.

Together, we can create a safe, respectful and inclusive learning environment for everyone.

THEORY OF SHAMPOO

Understanding the science behind the shampoo bowl makes you a better hairdresser and barber because great hair starts long before the styling begins.

Inspiration starts with seeing what’s possible.

From industry icons to the underdogs and rising talent, HairCon was packed with creativity, innovation and skill. Watching artists push boundaries reminded us that hairdressing and barbering never stand still – they’re constantly evolving.

At JET, we believe inspiration only matters if you bring it back with you. Whether it’s a new technique, a fresh way of thinking or the confidence to try something different, every experience helps shape the future of our industry.

Did you go to HairCon? We’d love to know:
What inspired you most, and what will you be bringing back to your clients, your staff or the future of hairdressing and barbering?

Looking to grow your salon team and invest in the future of the industry?

There’s never been a better time to take on an apprentice with JET Hairdressing Academy.

The Government is introducing new employer incentives of up to £3,000 for eligible businesses hiring young people aged 18 - 24 into employment and apprenticeships, alongside additional apprenticeship support expected from October 2026 for SMEs hiring apprentices aged 16 - 24.

As part of our commitment to supporting our employer partners, we are also launching our new Employer Support & Information Pack on 10th June. The pack will be emailed to all of our employers across Essex and London and will include apprenticeship updates, funding information, employer incentives, key contacts and details of the support available from the JET team.

The pack will be regularly updated throughout the year, ensuring employers always have access to the latest information and guidance. Future updates will be shared alongside editions of The Collective magazine, making it a valuable resource for employers to refer back to whenever needed.

If you’re ready to expand your team, we’d love to support you.

Get in touch with our team to find out more about recruitment, training and funding support. Call us on 01268 286403 or send us a DM.
