Planning a course away from Tenby

Your practical training takes place at our St Mary Street academy in Cardiff city centre. Before choosing a course, look at what the full teaching week would mean for you from Tenby.

Plan for all 12 weeks

Check the complete outbound and return journey for your preferred session, including any connections and local travel. Then consider how that routine would work from Monday to Friday over 12 weeks. Allow time for coursework, practice and rest alongside attendance.

Would a weekday base in Cardiff suit you?

Compare daily travel with staying in Cardiff during teaching weeks. Consider accommodation, journeys home, travel costs and any work or caring commitments. Use the Transport for Wales journey planner to check trains for the dates you intend to travel. Confirm course availability before making bookings.

Build skills in a working environment

The beginner course develops consultation, clipper and scissor skills before you work with real haircut clients from week 3. Models are supplied. Training includes fades, beard work, traditional wet shaving and professional barbershop practice, alongside customer service and portfolio development.
