Barber looking for work

[MARKHOP5]

Hi im looking for some advice please, i'm a qualified hairdresser with over 20 years experience in UK. I am qualified in most aspects of hairdressing but have specialised in Gents barbering more recently.

I am trained in cut throat razor and towel treatments etc.

I'm wondering if this type of work is in demand in Australia?

My family and I would like to move either to the Kingscliff area of NSW or Perth.

I would aloso like to know what the wages are like, and also rents, medical cover and school fees.

Any information would be great.

many thanks.

I personally think we need more experienced barbers only last night i took my boys to a different baber to what we normally use , what a mess , i had to ask her to sit one of the twins down again as he had a big tuff still on him , ........I couldn't say much as they are family friends but i still paid the $30 , i have done a better job myself in the past .....mrs tonyman was really unimpressed as they had school photos today ! Their usual barber was just so busy , they do it to perfection and really take their time.......

the express barbers are terrible $10 cuts and they just make them look stupid , i dont think they should be allowed .........

so im all for good experienced barbers coming over ....please come to Perth though ....good luck pal

There's a Lil old nail tech/spraytanners/eyelash extension lady here who'd be looking for somewhere to start up when I arrive.... So if you happen to open up yourself pleeeeaassee pleeeeaassee consider a sidekick :wink:

Nothing stopping you opening up yourself if you can squeeze the funds to do so.....
