Education · Apprentices
Iron + Ivy Academy.
The in-salon training programme Lauren founded at Iron + Ivy Hair Studio in Queenstown, to train and mentor apprentices into working stylists.
So far she has taken four apprentices all the way through. Lauren counts that as just as rewarding as growing the business.
How it works
Trained on the floor. Mentored all the way.
Learn in a working salon
Apprentices train inside Iron + Ivy, New Zealand's first Moroccanoil flagship salon, alongside a team doing the real thing every day.
Mentored by Lauren
Lauren has been teaching since she was 22 and designed the training programmes at Reuben Wood in Manchester. The Academy is where she puts that to work at home.
Out into the wider industry
Iron + Ivy invests in in-house training and sends team members to national and international education events, so learning doesn't stop at the salon door.
So far
Four apprentices. Four working stylists.
Every one of them came through the Academy and out the other side doing the job.
