Hairdressing is a global profession and the demand for a hairdresser sponsorship in Australia is growing!
At Epic Hair Designs, we welcome talented professionals from around the world to stay in Australia and educate our up-and-coming hairdressers. So, if you’re searching for a visa pathway for hairdressers in Australia, you’re in luck!
We have created a seamless visa pathway for hairdressers seeking sponsorship in Queensland, Australia. And the best part is? With 12 years’ experience in visas, we’ve had a 100% success rate in securing work sponsorships for hairdressers which can lead to a permanent residency.
The Epic opportunities we offer are designed to encourage stylists to relocate to Australia and join our Epic family! In addition to securing a full-time permanent job, overseas stylists will receive sponsorship for a trip down under and work alongside a supportive team that nurtures their talents.
One of our UK stylists, Emma, had been looking for months to find a work sponsorship for hairdressers before being contacted by Epic Hair Designs.
“Not only did Epic Hair Designs give my family and I an opportunity to live and work in Australia, but they also provided an excellent training program and an amazing work family,” Emma said.
“I can honestly say that I drew the ace card and am now working for one of Queensland’s best salons.”
After 2 years of being stuck inside, our client roster is now booming, and we simply can’t keep up! An increased demand for hairdressing skills has sent us on a mission to discover more overseas workers with the right qualifications and create a seamless visa pathway for hairdressers.
What do we offer?
Based in the sunshine state of Australia, our 15 salons are located throughout Brisbane and the Gold Coast (which is classed as regional). Our salons are home to a team of 170 employees with more trained Goldwell Master Colourists than any other salon in Australia. We believe that culture grows from within our walls, which is why training is at the core of what we do. Our Epic Academy in Brisbane was established in 2017 to invest in our stylists with a fully tailored program and to ensure they complete the globally recognised Goldwell Master Colourist Course.
Epic Hair Designs continues to expand, and we are committed to offering overseas hairdressers the same opportunities here in Australia. We secure a hairdresser sponsorship in Australia under the 190 or 491 state sponsorship visa subclasses. The 190 visa is a permanent residency visa, whereas the 491 is a temporary visa with a pathway to permanent residency.
