Colour Masterclass for Chamber Training’s Hairdressing Apprentices

Our Hairdressing apprentices recently had the fantastic opportunity to visit Ruby Tuesdays Hair Salon for an exclusive Colour Masterclass with salon owner Kim!

Kim’s journey is truly inspiring - starting as an apprentice supported by Chamber Training, she worked her way up to become a stylist before eventually taking ownership of Ruby Tuesdays. Now, she’s giving back by training the next generation of apprentices!

During the session, Kim shared her expert knowledge on creative colour techniques, building a professional portfolio, and using social media to showcase hairdressing skills. She also highlighted the vital role hairdressers play in supporting clients’ well-being—both physically and mentally.

Kim made sure the apprentices felt right at home, welcoming them with Krispy Kreme doughnuts (everyone’s favourite!) and gifting them notebooks and pens to start recording their own ‘colour recipes’. Apprentices got hands-on experience, learning how to perfect their craft and present their work at a high commercial standard.

A huge thank you to Kim for her warm hospitality and invaluable training—what an incredible experience for our apprentices!

Quote from one of our Hairdressing Apprentices: "A really lovely salon and lovely people! Because of how friendly Kim was, I felt comfortable to ask questions, and she made the whole process a lot easier to understand. Not only did I learn new colouring techniques, but I also gained a better understanding of what it takes to run a successful salon, from client management to the importance of branding and social media."

Coventry and Warwickshire Chamber of Commerce Training has a team of specialist advisers dedicated to helping students prepare for their future careers.

With a strong track record of working in partnership with schools, the team recently helped Year 11 students from Sidney Stringer Academy to develop their CV writing skills and enhance their understanding of the job application process.

Nicky Cheshire, Business Development Manager at Chamber Training, commented: "We work closely with students to help them understand the importance of creating a strong CV and completing effective job applications. The mock interviews are a fantastic opportunity for students to identify their strengths, skills, and aspirations, as well as learn how to present themselves confidently in an interview setting."
