Wynne-Hoelscher Academy

Hairdressing is the art of dressing hair, to style, shape and design hairstyles that compliment people’s lifestyle and personality. Hairdressing is one of the few “technology proof” careers where it is accepted to touch people. As a hairdresser you relax clients with a fabulous scalp massage, and renew and invigorate clients with a fabulous shine colour or funky style cut. It is glamorous, fun, exciting, rewarding and no place for the faint hearted!

Wynne-Hoelscher Academy, established by hairdressing masters Anthony & Susa Wynne-Hoelscher is Australia' s most innovative and respected hairdressing academy.   For more than 16 years we have been industry leaders in delivering cutting edge & professional hairdressing training for school leavers, young adults and mature age students on a full-time/part-time “Fee-For-Service” & “Apprenticeship” basis. 

Our Academy's comprehensive competency based and nationally recognised training system is designed to produce elite hairdressers.  Our Academy provides nationally recognised qualifications and as of just recently we have now CRICOS registration that allows us to accept overseas students.   Consequently we are now taking Australian elite hairdressing to areas around the world.
