Templemore College Hairdressing Student creates a winner!

Congratulations to TCFE Hairdressing student Denise Manton who won in the category ‘Fantasy Creation on a Mannequin’ at the recent Schools Hair Competition Ireland.

Denise has worked tirelessly over the past number of weeks on her unique creation entitled ‘Midnight Thoughts’. The piece is constructed from hair and cleverly formed into 3D spheres encompassing cool tones. The design itself ‘thinks outside the box’ when it comes to most hair styles. This is the main concept of the competition – it encourages hairdressing students to embrace the potential of hair and to see it as a material that can be constructed in any shape or form.

Preparing and working with students on this national competition is part of the hairdressing programme at Templemore College of Further Education. It is a fantastic opportunity for students and valuable experience for them.

Well done also to TCFE hairdressing students Evelyn Roberts and Leah Kelly who also competed in the 2018 Schools ‘Hair Competition Ireland’ at St. John’s College, Cork.

Thanks to all at St. John’s College Cork for hosting this competition. TCFE students loved the experience.
