In this episode today, I'm thrilled to once again be joined by current British Hairdresser of the Year 2022 and Global Creative Director for TONI&GUY Cos Sakkas. Cos is passionate that we need to bring more positive awareness to the hair industry and how we can explore creative approaches to bringing more apprentices into it. Our conversation revolves around the decline in apprenticeships within the hairdressing industry and how at TONI&GUY, they have taken proactive steps to address this issue head-on. Cos is keen to highlight the significance of providing young apprentices with valuable opportunities and equipping them with the necessary skills to excel in salon work. Something you'll hear all about! One of the critical aspects we discuss is the funding and support available for apprentices, as well as the noticeable quality improvement they are too experience after implementing comprehensive apprenticeship and training programs. Cos emphasises the unique benefits that come with being part of a renowned brand like TONI&GUY, including the unparalleled opportunities it offers in terms of education and growth. While the changing hair industry faces many challenges, we explore the need to train apprentices to the same high standards within a shorter time frame. To adapt to the fast-paced content world, Cos is to suggest incorporating additional skills such as business acumen, social media expertise, and effective communication into the training curriculum. We delve into the idea of incentivising apprentices within the salon environment. Theres so much covered, so be sure to stay tuned for an insightful discussions and engaging content for the current British Hairdresser of the Year, Cos Sakkas.     A podcast produced and published by HOWTOCUT IT Network  Thanks for Listening Leave a note in the comment section below.

Trevor Sorbie is known as an innovative hairdresser and is the founder of the charity, MyNewHair. Born into a family of hairdressers – both his father and grandfather were barbers – he spent the first decade of his life in Scotland before the family relocated to Essex. His first ambition was to become an artist, but when he left school aged 15 with no qualifications after being bullied, his father suggested that he could help out at his barbershop. Within three months, Trevor was cutting hair and found that he loved it. Five years down the line, however, he decided to learn about cutting women’s hair and following his training, his first job was at a Vidal Sassoon salon. He would later go on to work at both John Frieda and Toni & Guy, before launching his own salon with his business partner in 1979. He invented several iconic haircuts of the era, including the Wedge and the Chop, and he came up with the technique of scrunch drying. His innovative styles won him the British Hairdresser of the Year award four times. In 2006, he set up his charity MyNewHair to teach hairdressers how to cut and style wigs after his sister-in-law lost her hair in the course of her cancer treatment. Since then, he has trained nearly a thousand hairdressers. He was the first hairdresser to be awarded an MBE by the Queen in 2004.
