About Biba Academy

“Our Biba Hairdressing Academy students also have the opportunity to become employed in one of our family-owned Biba Hair Salons across Melbourne, because we’re passionate about educating our trainees to the highest levels. And that’s one of our extraordinary points of difference. We don’t just train people with a cookie cutter approach… we want the best from them, and for them! And whilst we like to train our own salon professionals through their apprenticeships, we’re also in demand and recommended by independent hairdressing salons across the state of Victoria to train their apprentices, because our training systems have the reputation for being of such a high standard.

Our accomplished Educators have won multiple accolades for their hair cutting and styling around the world, and several of them are regularly invited to be presenters and judges for the likes of the Internationally-renowned Wella Hair Trend Shows. We’re proud of our team and our collective achievements that have included being named Salon of the Year (in 2016), and we currently have three of our Educators as Top Ten Finalists in the Australian 2017 Wella TrendVision Awards (which will be decided in September). This comes after having our Head Educator, Lyndal Salmon, win International Gold at these awards (in Monte Carlo) in 2014.

As one of our Biba Hair Academy students, the possibilities are endless, and we also offer annual awards and prizes for our best trainees, including a six-week experience with Vidal Sassoon in London.
