Meet Your Lead Educator

25 years on the salon floor — taught in days, not years.

I'm Sandra — a professional hairdresser with 25 years of commercial experience and a dedicated keratin treatment specialist of 15 years. As a salon owner and a chemist who formulates her own handmade hair products, my whole career has been spent decoding hair behaviour, structure and density mapping.

I'm officially accredited to train and assess students — so this isn't a casual weekend workshop. It's a short, intensive path designed to take an absolute beginner to a confident, certified finish.

Why I built SFHair

Traditional beauty schools stretch the basics over months and still leave students nervous to touch a paying client. My 2-day courses do the opposite — pure high-repetition, hands-on mechanics, with the geometry behind every cut, blow wave and style explained as you do it.

My personal promise

  • Strictly capped micro-classes. Maximum 2–3 students per intake so you get uninterrupted, eye-level mentoring.
  • A real working studio. You train inside a functioning boutique studio in Melbourne, on real tools, mannequins and live models.
  • A real financial blueprint. You graduate with an accredited certificate and the option to apply for temporary chair access here to build your portfolio safely.

Whether you're a mum looking for flexible hours, a career-changer wanting to work from home, or a mobile stylist after elite short-hair skills — I'm here to guide your hands and protect your confidence every step of the way.

Graduate Bonus

The Ultimate Headstart

Eligible graduates get the exclusive option to access our Melbourne salon space to start building real, paying clients immediately — on a simple rent-a-chair arrangement.

No salon job application, no waiting list. Finish your course, prove your hands on a few assessment models, and you can be charging your first paying clients in the same studio you trained in.

  • Affordable rent-a-chair day rate — only pay for the days you work
  • Use the studio's tools, basin and product while you build your kit
  • Keep 100% of what your clients pay you
  • Sandra on-site for guidance while you find your feet

Subject to graduation, assessment and studio availability.
