Hairdressing and Beauty
The hair and beauty industry is primarily concerned with making people look good and feel good about themselves, and helps men and women achieve the 'right' look while keeping a healthy and balanced lifestyle.
It is an industry constantly evolving through changes in fashion trends and the development of new products, innovative techniques and highly sophisticated technology.
Millions of dollars are spent each year on scientific research into anti-ageing and rejuvenating skincare. The beauty industry has also begun to work closely with other health and medical practitioners in the care of skin and the development of total health care concepts such as nutrition and lifestyle.
The sector has seen significant job growth in the last five years and is forecast to continue to grow strongly with high job vacancies.
