Mums, time for a new career?
Being a mum isn't easy; it brings many challenges and perhaps the idea of returning to a full-time job no longer appeals or works for you. With motherhood and maternity leave giving you distance and perspective to consider a new career path, Capital is here to help you get the ball rolling. Make the most of those nap times, work around school pick up and drop off and learn the pleasures of being your own boss. Whatever your situation may be, a mobile or at home beauty business is ideal for mums as it's easy to fit around family commitments. Below are a few of our top picks from the courses we offer to give you a helping hand on where to get started.
Caflon Ear Piercing Course
Taking only 2 hours and costing only £18.50 this course is a steal, not to mention an efficient use of time! This course gives you a detailed account of the products used and how to pierce an ear. A complete and thorough demonstration of the ear piercing process is given and then students will practice piercing of the lobe under close inspection. Following completion of this course you'd be able to easily fit in appointments around family life.
The Manicure Company Gel Workshop
Learn to apply The Manicure Company gel colours and a French Manicure on this intensive one day course. This 4.5 hour course will give you the tools and confidence to offer a professional gel polish application or removal. Again, nail appointments are easy to fit in between commitments and busy family life.
Eyelash Perming, Lifting & Tinting
Our most popular course and a very popular treatment, this is ideal for the complete beginner. Lashes and brows are all the rage so utilise this course to master these simple but stunning techniques that offer a daily alternative to wearing mascara and using mechanical eyelash curlers. This course includes lashperm, lashlift & essential lash & brow tints.

Salon System's Marvel-Lash technique offers a simple & effective procedure to thicken & lengthen lashes with immediate results that will last up to 2 months. This course is suitable for complete beginners & for those wishing to update their skills. Salon System's Marvel-Lash technique is one of the fastest growing treatments you can offer & will ensure long term profitability.

Getting set up with the right tools:
All of this would be pointless without the right equipment. On many of the courses you will be given advice regarding what equipment you will want in the long run when providing that specific service, alternatively come into one of our stores and we’ll be happy to advise you. We sell a huge range of products from nail stations to stools to styling units we’ve got you covered at Capital.

Why Capital training courses are a must!
We could go on and on about our training courses, but sometimes, it’s good to let the students do the talking. Here Ruth, of Beauty By Ruth, shares her insights from our Acrylic nail course.
New year, new skills
In the hair and beauty industry, it’s vital to keep your knowledge of trends and techniques up to date.
Never stop learning
I’ve been lucky enough to work with many hairdressers over the years, interviewing and following them around backstage at Fashion Week, but one thing has never changed: the constant urge to stay educated.
Be passionate about hair & beauty!
On a regular basis, Capital Brighton works with Brighton City college on its Enrichment Days: short, one-day courses that are not required by the curriculum, but celebrate the students’ passions when it comes to hair and beauty.
