A CELEBRITY hairstylist visited Redditch to give students at NEW College a master class in tricks of the trade.

Andrew Jose, author of the book Love Your Hair, swapped his top salons in London and Prague to spend time at the college's Fusion salon to demonstrate the latest colouring and cutting techniques.

College tutor Eileen Taaffe said: "This was a great opportunity to see one of the industry's top stylists in action.

"Andrew's success as a stylist and a businessman demonstrate how far a career in the hair and beauty industry can take a talented and committed individual."
