I throughly enjoyed my 4 months here and recommend it highly. The tutors are all very kind and knowledgable, and do their upmost to help. The course covers a lot of material and makes you feel prepared, whilst also leaving room for creativity and fun. Petar and Zorica also help a lot, they make sure you are comfortable and steer you in the direction of jobs whilst you’re at the course and after. I met some lovely people at the course and really looked forward to coming in every day. Kitty Horsman2024-09-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I completed the 4 months course at CBMA and I loved it. The tutors have all been in the industry for years, so they are incredibly knowledgeable and great for boosting your confidence. We had many oscar winning tutors, and to meet them and get taught by some of the best in the industry was amazing. This course is completely practical so for me it was the best way to learn and get you started. The aftercare provided is invaluable and they really pride themselves on family values and keeping in touch with the students once you've finished. I couldn't recommend this course enough and I'm so glad I did it. Stacie Blyth2024-09-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I recently trained in the Textured Hair and Barbering courses to top up my skills and expand my knowledge. Both Petar and Zorica made me feel very welcome and there was great communication from the start. The tutors on my courses were brilliant and I came away feeling like I had learnt an inordinate amount in such a short space of time. CBMA is an excellent place to train and learn and I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to start or further their career.
