Inspire Hair & Beauty
At East Riding College, our students learn the skills they need to become a successful hair stylist or beauty therapist. They work to challenging standards and are supervised by highly qualified and experienced staff. Our aim is to provide you with the kind of relaxing and enjoyable experience you would expect from any high street salon.
The hairdressing and beauty therapy salons are well equipped and maintained to high standards, and our reception areas are welcoming and comfortable. To make an appointment, call into the salon at our campus in Gallows Lane, Beverley or ring 01482 306667 or visit the salon at our campus in St Mary's Walk, Bridlington or call 01262 455044. Your hair or beauty treatment will be carried out by a student, supervised by a member of staff. The prices are listed according to the level at which the learner is studying and the higher the level, the more accomplished the student will be.
We are pleased to accept the following methods of payment:
cash, cheque (with guarantee card), debit or credit card or
salon voucher. If you would like to see a price list, call one of the salons or download the price list (PDF 890kb)
