Make-up & Hair Design (with Professional Practice Year)

Our BA (Hons) Make-up & Hair Design degree course, taught at UCA Epsom, has been designed for make-up and hair professionals by make-up and hair professionals, with an emphasis on work in the fashion industry, including for editorial, advertorial, and moving image.

Make-up and hair artists are key to the creation of impactful fashion images. If you are ambitious, drawn to the medium, and keen to express yourself and experiment, then this is the course for you.

You’ll learn about the history of fashion and cosmetics and their relevance to today’s discourse in fashion image-making. You’ll meet with industry professionals and learn about make-up, skincare, and beauty products, and how to use these in artistic and unconventional ways.

Equal weight is given to hair and make-up skills, giving you the scope to create head pieces, as well as master airbrushing and body paint techniques. You’ll learn how to generate ideas and develop a creative project from conception to delivery, engaging with topics that reflect your individual voice while pushing boundaries through experimentation.

Throughout the course, you’ll be taught by academics and technicians who are active in the industry, and you’ll collaborate on exciting projects with students from other fashion image courses.
