Kayahan Akyol
Prior to graduating and completing the 30 week Advanced Hair and Makeup course, I studied both Level 1 and 2 Beauty therapy. Although being a self taught makeup artist for a few years the Iver helped me gain confidence to work well under pressure as well as being able to work in teams. I do pride myself on having a good work ethic, and am personable and coordinated. I work well in fast moving , have the ability to meet deadlines and adapt well to challenges
I am a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community.
Having a truly individual approach to my creations, is what sets me apart from my counterparts.
