THEY are making beautiful waves at Eastleigh College with the opening of a new hairdressing salon.

It is tailor-made for budding crimpers on full and part-time courses, which include NVQ one and two. The ultra modern salon has 15 styling stations and is fully functional offering a real working environment.

The first group of students to enrol on the new hairdressing courses are aged between 16 and 39 and come from various backgrounds.

Leading the course is Fiona White, who is relishing her new role and has high hopes for her students.

She said: "We hope to achieve many great things at Eastleigh College, so watch this space.''

Next year the students will open to the public for a range of hairdressing services.
