Dollheads

Students use  dollheads, both when they're working toward and at the competitions. And since it takes a lot of hours to refine the shape and color, it is probably lucky that.On the men doll shall both the cutting and styling be made with a masculine and modern result.It requires many training hours to get an even finish.

Burgårdens students compete successfully.

The teachers are very involved in competitive activities at school

 and this is reflected in both the preparation and student achievement.

Here we see a teacher work with the final preparations for the Swedish championship this year.

The competition was held on school premises.

This is the entrance to the barber school.

The school accepts paying customers to make students ready for work,

and its daily life.

Students begin to accept clients in year two.

After school the student needs 2500 hours of training in a hairdressing salon

before he/she can do the trade certificate test.

All in all, it is approximately 300 students in Burgårdens Barber School.
