Course introduction

It is no longer possible to apply/enrol for this course as there are no course dates available. Please check back later as we may be offering it again in the future.

This course is perfect if you are wanting to refresh your current knowledge in colouring and learn new skills about colour correction.

During the course, you will learn: 

  • Communication and consultation techniques
  • Contra-indications
  • Health, safety and hygiene
  • Preparation
  • Completing a colour correction service
  • Home and after care 

You can expect a dedicated team of lecturers who still work in the industry, so have up to date skills and experience. 

This will be a hands-on learning experience to ensure you get a solid grounding in the main colour correction techniques, using high quality products. 

Practical skills will be assessed when carrying out the service on a client, and your knowledge will also be tested with a multiple-choice exam.

This qualification will also help you improve communication and customer service skills, awareness of environmental sustainability and commercial skills, all of which are valued in the industry.
