Our Story
About City Hair & Beauty Academy
City Hair & Beauty Academy is a London-based training provider dedicated to one thing: helping passionate people build real, lasting careers in aesthetics and beauty. As a ProQual-accredited academy, we deliver nationally recognised, Ofqual-regulated qualifications backed by genuine hands-on experience — so you don’t just earn a certificate, you graduate ready to practise with confidence.
Who We Are
Founded by experienced professionals, City Hair & Beauty Academy was built to raise the standard of aesthetics and beauty training in London. We saw too many short, unregulated courses leaving students under-prepared for real clients — so we created an academy where regulated qualifications, expert teaching and hands-on practice come together under one roof. Today, we train aspiring and established practitioners from across London and the wider UK, supporting them from their very first course right through to advanced clinical treatments.
What We Offer
Our training pathways are designed to take you as far as your ambition allows:
- ProQual Level 5, 6 & 7 Diplomas in Aesthetic Practice — Ofqual-regulated qualifications covering everything from foundational aesthetic practice through to advanced treatments including microneedling, chemical peels, anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers.
- Aesthetics Training — advanced, practical courses that build the precision and confidence to deliver in-demand treatments safely.
- Beauty Training — professional beauty courses that establish strong foundations and open the door to a flexible, rewarding career.
ProQual Accredited, Regulated Training You Can Trust
Every qualification we offer is awarded by ProQual, an Ofqual-regulated awarding organisation. That means your diploma is nationally recognised — carrying real weight with employers, clients and insurance providers, and clearly distinguishing your training from one-day, unregulated certificates. It’s the difference between a course and a genuine qualification.
