Project Scotland, in partnership with The Fellowship for British Hairdressing, is designed to showcase and elevate the very best of Scottish hairdressing talent. The new initiative will offer a programme packed with eight education days and an exclusive photoshoot, allowing participants to delve into every aspect of hair artistry—from cutting and colouring to styling and beyond.  

Applications for the programme open on 14 October, before closing on 11 November. This exciting opportunity is perfect for any hairdresser looking to take their hairdressing craft to the next level.

What truly sets Project Scotland apart is its commitment to supporting homegrown talent. Each participant will have the chance to work alongside Scotland’s top hair professionals, learning from their expertise while sharpening their own abilities. Whether it’s through photoshoots, stage time at prestigious events like HairCon Manchester, or the Project Grand Finale, team mentees will have ample opportunities to showcase their skills in front of live audiences. 

Leading the charge for Project Scotland is the managing director of Medusa, Scotland’s fastest-growing salon group, known for its six innovative salons and a cutting-edge academy. As Wella UK style director and global business mentor, he brings unparalleled expertise in both creative cutting and business education, with a mission to champion Scotland’s talent and shape the future of global hairdressing. 

But it’s not just about stage lights and applause, Project Scotland is about growing the next generation of hair professionals, empowering them to push boundaries and contribute to Scotland’s thriving hairdressing scene. The programme offers a real-world platform for putting new techniques into practice, allowing mentees to create, experiment, and grow. 

Whether you’re a rising star in cutting, colouring, or styling, this is your opportunity to elevate your craft and join a community that values innovation and artistry. Become part of the next wave of Scottish hairdressing talent.
