Last week was all about learning, growth, and inspiration for the Oracle Hairdressing team here in Chippenham. We had not one, but two incredible training sessions designed to elevate both our creative and personal development.
Monday: A Masterclass with Daniel Granger
We kicked off the week with a day of education and creativity as we welcomed multi award-winning hairstylist and E4’s Body Fixers star, Daniel Granger, to Oracle Hairdressing for an exclusive in-salon training session.
Daniel shared his expert knowledge on precision cutting, graduation, and layering techniques, working across long, mid-length, and short hair shapes. The team were inspired by his incredible attention to detail and the way he creates soft, balanced, and beautifully face-framing styles.
By the end of the session, everyone was buzzing with ideas and eager to put their new skills into practice with our clients. A huge thank you to Daniel for such an insightful and inspiring day — we’re already looking forward to your next visit!
Wednesday: Building Confidence with The Resilient Hairdresser
Midweek, we had the pleasure of joining another brilliant workshop led by Hayley Jepson, also known as The Resilient Hairdresser. Hayley is a passionate advocate for mental health and wellbeing in the hairdressing industry, and her workshops never fail to leave us feeling uplifted and empowered.
This session focused on building self-confidence — something every stylist, no matter their experience, can benefit from. Hayley reminded us that confidence isn’t about never having doubts, but about having the tools to overcome them.
We learned practical strategies to help us stay positive, grounded, and self-assured both behind the chair and beyond it. A huge thank you to Hayley for another valuable and motivating session — we’re already putting her tips into practice and can’t wait for the next one!
