About this Event

In partnership with the NHS and the South West Mental Health Clinical Network, we’re delighted to offer a new virtual training session of our BarberTalk Live course, for FREE. We have created a bespoke online training course called BarberTalk Online to assist hair professionals before they return to work, giving them the skills to help their clients when in need.

You’re more than a just a barber or a hairdresser.

These last few months have been incredibly challenging for all of us. We’ve all been having our own experiences of emotions and if you’ve been feeling it, so have your clients. When you’re able to get back to work, your clients will want to share their emotions and our BarberTalk training can help you prepare for those conversations. You’re more than a just a barber or a hairdresser. You’re a safe space for someone to feel some support and kindness. This is an opportunity for you to make a difference to someone’s life.

BarberTalk is an in-depth session that builds on the four pilars of our training to equip you with the skills to help your clients to better mental wellbeing:

Gives you the tools to RECOGNISE mental health issues in your clients

Equip you to be able to ASK direct questions about the emotional wellbeing of your clients

Refine your LISTENING skills to be present at a critical moment for your clients

Provide you with the resources to HELP your client find support
