How could nails differ in hairdressing and beauty therapy?
Professional image in hairdressing
In college we wear a tunic and trousers. However, within the hairdressing industry tunics are rarely worn.
Uniform policies will vary from salon to salon.
Most salons will also allow jewellery, varnish and nail extensions and any amount of make-up (as long as it is applied correctly!!)
Professional image in Beauty
Beauty salons have a very different image to hairdressers.
Tunics are nearly always worn
Hair is always up in a bun, plait or ponytail
Make-up is very minimal
Nails are short and natural (no extensions)
Very minimal jewellery (normally a wedding band, stud earrings and watch)
