Why this petition matters

Started by Jemima Bradley

We as an industry have a huge fault. This is the eduction of black hair. It’s not taught in college, not a single week or month. Not only is it not on your standard level 2 diploma but we as hairdressers have failed to offer our services to the best of our ability and educate ourselves in Afro hair. This is wrong. We need to stand up, make a change for the sake of our black clients. We as hairdressers have a global responsibility of making people feel good, to do this we need to educate ourselves in order to equally deliver. Having Afro training to be compulsory on an NVQ in hairdressing would change everything. And help to end the segregation in our industry. If you sign this petition you are helping to start a brighter, more equal, more educated industry.
