Training as a hairdresser?

[kateskuts]

hey, i did my level 1 last year, had to have a year out, and am hoping to do level 2 this sept again!
Does anyone else training find it really hard to get a placement! no one gives you the time of day, you'd think someone voulentering there services, salon owners would jump at the chance,
I applied to well over 40 salons around my area, and only had about 7or 8 replies saying no! it kinda disheartens < cant spell, hahaha! you a little, i just want to get in a salon and start learning the trade properly and learning all these amazing skills you see hair stylists doing!

anyone else having this problem, love to chat and rant about it! haha

lots of love

Yes when i wanted to do an apprenticeship most salons turned me away due to my age and the recession most salons cant afford apprentices. Now i am at college and have done some work experience in salons. good luck
