As we are entering into our second year of Pro Hair Diploma program, we've been humbled by the accolades and the acclaim that we've received from the industry. We are thrilled that we are able to provide our students with numerous industry internships during their studies at the very best salons in Vancouver. Students have the unique opportunity of being exposed to a variety of salon environments, cutting styles and techniques and clienteles. And as we've seen, these salon internships have often resulted in immediate job offers to our students, even while they are still in school! What the industry is saying about Blanche Macdonald's Pro Hair program: "The level and talent of the young students that come to me from Blanche Macdonald Hair Academy are exceptional. The training they receive at their school is of such a high standard, it enables them to fit right into the hectic, busy salon environment of a top salon like Avant Garde. They understand the principles of great client service which is of the highest priority to me. I try to expose them to the artistic and service aspects of busy salon life in the week they work with me. I have never been disappointed with the talent and work ethic from the students from Blanche Macdonald. This is clearly the result of a great teaching staff at the academy and I look forward to working with many more of their students in the years to come. Work experience is actually a one week job interview. This is what I tell the students, it is so true. I have also offered job opportunities to many of the students who have passed through my salon on work experience, as I believe their great training will make them invaluable assets in the future to top salons like Avant Garde." - Jon Paul Holt |

He is also co-founder and partner in Blo, Blow Dry Bars What our graduates are saying about Blanche Macdonald: "Blanche Macdonald has helped me grow as an up and coming artist. I have learned a lot from the instructors. They pushed me to be the best that I can be and it all paid off. I had the drive but I needed someone to start the ignition. There were points where I thought I was going to quit but I stuck through it. Thanks to Blanche for teaching me everything I needed to know and more. Thank you to all the instructors for believing in me and also giving me that extra push to get me along the way. From the beautiful facility and the wonderful people, I was able to put my name out there and make something of myself. And a special thanks to the staff at Bent Beauty Industries for giving me a chance and having faith in my skills." - Jennifer Louangxay - Blanche Macdonald Graduate 07', Hair Stylist, Bent Beauty
