Your First Step Into the Grooming Industry - 10 Days
Ready to work in a real salon? Our in-house Bather & Prepping Course is designed to give you the practical skills and confidence needed to step straight into a paid role as a salon bather or prep assistant.
This hands-on course is delivered inside a busy, working grooming salon — not a classroom. You’ll train on real customer dogs under the guidance of highly experienced groomers with over 10 years in the industry.
You’ll learn:
Safe handling and restraint
Professional bathing and drying techniques
Coat preparation and de-shedding
Brush-outs and pre-clipping prep
Salon workflow and hygiene standards
By the end of the course, you won’t just understand the theory — you’ll be confident working in a real salon environment, ready to apply for paid positions.
✔ Small group training
✔ Real salon experience
✔ Taught by experienced professional groomers
✔ Designed to make you job-ready
Spaces are limited to maintain hands-on learning quality. Secure your place and take your first step into the grooming industry today.
