For ambitious young hairdressers looking to elevate their skills with world-class education, the Fellowship Sassoon Scholarship is a golden opportunity to learn from the very best in the industry. Widely regarded as offering some of the finest training available, Sassoon Courses can transform a stylist’s career—but they aren’t always within reach for everyone.
The Fellowship Sassoon Scholarship aims to change that, giving one deserving winner the chance to attend Sassoon Courses worth up to £2,500 (excluding specialty courses). This includes the opportunity to choose training tailored to their interests and goals, ensuring a bespoke experience of industry-leading education.
Generous Support from Mutu
This year, the scholarship is proudly supported by Mutu, a trusted provider of Salon Call Manager solutions for the UK’s top hair and beauty businesses. In addition to covering course fees, the winner can also claim up to £1,000 for travel and, if needed, accommodation costs, courtesy of Mutu. The winner will also gain valuable exposure through PR support from the Fellowship platform, helping to raise their profile within the industry.
