What the heck is the ‘How To Cut It In The Hairdressing Industry’ podcast all about?

A series of podcasts giving you the insights, inspirations and information to take your hairdressing and barbering careers to the next level! Devised by Dom Lehane, the ‘How To Cut It’ first HTCI podcast is a welcome to the series. Listen to Dom explaining what you can expect to hear over the coming weeks, months and years.

He’s also sharing a little more on his hairdressing career to date including starting out as a 16-year-old working at Trevor Sorbie in London’s Covent Garden. You can find out how his path eventually led him to become a salon owner, and to the lightbulb moment when he dreamed up HairClubLive.
