I love my role as a hairdresser teacher and have trained, assessed, and taught students throughout my career. I feel very privileged to teach at the Junction 16 Hair and Beauty Training salon and get enormous satisfaction from watching the students develop the skills they will need to become successful hair stylists in the future.
