Vocational qualifications

Vocational qualifications are available in beauty therapy, hairdressing, barbering, salon reception and salon management. For body art (tattooing and piercing) there are no national vocational qualifications available yet. To develop the relationship with the body art sector, the development of national occupational standards was commenced by HABIA in 2004.

Achievement of vocational qualifications in hairdressing and beauty therapy is high with over 80% of the workforce possessing or working towards some form of qualification in the hairdressing, barbering or beauty therapy sectors.
