I have always loved working with children. My two career paths of hair stylist and school owner and teacher along with my experience as a mother have given me a unique understanding of children during the haircutting experience. I appeared on Dragons Den in 2009 and they didn't seem to think children's hair dressing was viable, but then again they turned down Tangle Teezer too! I have consulted on the set up of many children's salons throughout the UK since my appearance, and I now need an academy to keep up with my teaching of children's hair cutting for stylists who wish to specialise in this field !
The principle of my methods promote the easy management of the child in salon resulting in a quick, professional and relaxed hair cut. The innovative cutting and language techniques, that I have honed and train throughout the UK, are used at Raspberry and are exclusive to the Marion Burns Training Academy.
