Real salon experience before you graduate

One of the biggest challenges new hairstylists face is entering the workforce without enough hands-on experience. At Chellsey Institute, we make sure our students are confident and job-ready by offering real salon training as part of our Hairstyling Diploma Program.

📍 Learn by doing—not just watching

It's not enough to know the theory—you need to apply it. That’s why our on-site student salon is open to the public, so you can practice with real clients, not just mannequins.

You’ll cut, color, style, and consult under the guidance of licensed instructors, building your confidence and skills from day one.

🌟 Why real experience matters

Working in a real salon teaches you more than textbooks ever could. You’ll learn how to:

●       Consult with clients professionally
●       Recommend treatments and styles
●       Perform services like trims, blowouts, balayage, and updos
●       Manage your time and workflow
●       Adjust based on feedback and client needs
These experiences help you grow faster, find your creative rhythm, and build confidence with every appointment.

💼 Build your confidence—and your client base

Many of our students start forming real client relationships before they graduate. Clients love the professional setting and affordable services, and students gain the benefit of consistent practice and real feedback.

Some even get hired before graduation—by salons or by clients impressed with their work during training.

🎓 Graduate with more than a diploma

By the time you finish your program, you won’t just leave with a certificate—you’ll graduate with real client hours, hands-on experience, and the skills to succeed in any salon environment.

You’ll stand out to employers and feel ready to step behind the chair with confidence.
