All-round barber (ball)

Continue in the men's hairdressing profession

In addition to trendy men's hairstyles, you know everything about beard care and styling, and you create a cool atmosphere in the barbershop.

You know how to ensure your customers leave satisfied. You listen carefully to what your customer wants and respond accordingly. You know all the trendy styles and can see which hairstyle or beard style suits someone's face. You also provide advice on hair care and products.

During the MBO hairdressing course to become an all-round barber, you will learn virtually all the techniques you need on a daily basis, such as cutting, trimming, fading, and styling. You will learn about beard care, including trimming, touching up contours, and maintaining moustaches. And very importantly: shaving with a razor. As an all-round barber, you will also learn experienced blow-drying techniques, permanent and temporary hair transformation, and focus on the customer experience.

During the first year, Barber and All-round Barber students work together frequently. You have a fixed schedule and a fixed group.

What are you becoming?

As an all-round barber, you will work in a barbershop, but you can of course also work in a mixed barbershop. With enough experience, you can also start your own business.

What does the training look like?

The MBO hairdressing course All-round Barber Level 3 in Eindhoven is a full-time (BOL) program: you attend school 4 days a week and do an internship 1 day a week.

In the first year, you work closely with students from the Level 2 Barber program.

Personalized learning
We always discuss with you what your learning trajectory will look like. The duration varies per student.

Complete the program in 2 year

You can also complete the program in two years. To be eligible for this, you must meet certain progress requirements. Among other things, your level of Dutch and arithmetic, your professional attitude, and attendance are assessed. After the first period, it is determined whether you meet these progress requirements and whether you can complete the program at an accelerated pace. This gives you the opportunity to finish the program within two years.

In the Education and Examination Regulations (OER) of a study program, you can read what you will be doing in which period, how much time is spent on this, and an overview of the exams that will be administered. Find the OER for your study program here.

Contributing to sustainable development

The Summa Beauty & Lifestyle Hair Care team wants to show everyone what sustainable development means in the hairdressing profession.

The UN has established seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for 2030. These goals are intended to make the world a better place for everyone. In hair care programs, you'll contribute to achieving several of these goals, for example, in the areas of waste, health, food, water, or climate.

Examples include limiting water pollution, using fair-trade suppliers, separating hairdressing waste to reuse raw materials in collaboration with Green Scissors, and much more. It is inspiring to participate in this together with your fellow students and colleagues.
