Learning from the best: Team mentees will have the opportunity to collaborate with and learn from some the leading hair professionals that Northern Ireland has to offer.   

                              
Real-world exposure: Whether through photoshoots, stage work, live sessions, or other creative projects, this programme provides opportunities to put newly developed skills into practice.

Stephen Campbell, Project Northern Ireland Leader said: “Northern Ireland getting its chance to showcase the incredible talent it has to offer is so exciting, not only for the ever-emerging talent, but also for the phenomenal trailblazers who we’ll have mentorship days with as part of Project Northern Ireland. These are people I look up to myself, who have and continue to shape the hairdressing industry, and for them to share their knowledge and advice with the mentees. This is an opportunity I cannot recommend enough for anyone considering applying.”
