Salon Apprentice

What you'll be doing...

In this fixed term apprenticeship program you will be working towards gaining a Level 2 Diploma in Hairdressing at the London Hairdressing Apprenticeship Academy and gaining professional experience whilst working in the Bleach London salons. You will be an ambassador for the brand and instrumental in the day to day running of the salon. At the end of this program you will have reached the first stage in becoming an excellent hairdresser, ready to apply for roles as a salon assistant.

Welcome to Bleach!

The meteoric rise of hair brand Bleach London is best described by Time Out as "The grungy salon that pioneered the dip-dye, then conquered the globe." The female-led, boundary-pushing business was launched by Alex Brownsell and Sam Campbell in 2010 as the world's first salon focused on colour.

With a closely knit family of international premises, ever-expanding vegan product range and intuitive digital salon services, Brownsell and Campbell have reimagined the way people approach their hair. They're on a mission to make Bleach's expertise accessible to all, so anyone can express themselves through their hair colour affordably and informatively.

Carried in UK retailers including Boots, Superdrug, Cult Beauty and ASOS, Bleach London opened a LA Based Salon in 2021 and has a significant US National Retailer launch planned for 2022. The coveted Bleach brand, regularly featured in Vogue, Dazed, i-D and more, paired with its pioneering approach, marks a new era in digital beauty and at-home hair dyeing.
