There is also a full list of hairdressing services, including blow dries, colour and perms. The salon uses popular hair products by Schwarzkopf Professional and award winning skin care brand Dermalogica.

Angela McAfee, depute head of faculty for service industries, said: “Fusion has always been popular with external clients and our students are always looking to gain as much practice in a professional salon environment as possible.

“Being able to offer a ‘real life’ situation to students is of great benefit for their training and the feedback has been really positive.

“Most of the students will work in the beauty industry once their course has finished and this gives them a great starting point for their future careers.”
