program, 22 of which come from the third batch that graduated this April 2018. Each batch of beneficiaries underwent daily classroom sessions in the
Barangay Hall for three months wherein they were taught different hairdressing
skills such as customer service, blowdrying, haircoloring, haircutting, rebonding,
and application of hair treatments – under the tutelage of L’Oréal Philippines
hair professionals. They were also exposed to a one-week internship in
L’Oréal’s partner salons across Metro Manila to expose them to actual
hairdressing jobs and potentially further their career options.
