Course overview

What does it mean to be a Barber? It starts with helping men to look  their best. A great haircut can be the confidence boost someone needs just before they head off to a new job interview, an event where all eyes will be on them, or just because they want to look good. As their barber, it all starts with you.

The barbering industry is continuing to grow and with media focused on male grooming, more and more men are willing to invest in how they look. The opportunities available to you are endless. As a barber, you have the skills to shape your career, from working in a high-end salon to a slick barbershop or starting your own business.

The possibilities in front of you are yours for the taking. The biggest thing you’ll bring with you is your passion to help men look their best. If you’re ready to take on a career that can change a person’s life through a good haircut, the Demi International Certificate III in Barbering is your first step on the career path you’re searching for.
