Working as a hairdresser in the United States or England?

Bérenge · 2008-07-27

😉Hi everyone!!! I’m a hairdresser in France and I’d really love to move to the United States or England... But how can I find a job before I leave? Where can I get information? Are there any organizations that help with this? Thanks so much for your replies🙂.

hi bérenge. first, register on coiffuredeparis.fr—it works well, it's free, and there are a few job postings abroad. if you find work in England, make sure to sign the contract before leaving—it's very important. for the United States, you'll need a visa, which can take a long time to get, but if you find an employer, they can handle it for you. I recommend checking out the Dessange website—they have lots of job postings and always get back to you. also, take a look at the ANPE website.

good luck with your job search!

Good evening Bérangère,

I’m currently looking for answers and information to move abroad and practice my profession as a hairdresser.

I came across your post! Even though your post is over 16 years old, I was wondering if you’d be willing to share what happened next. Did you manage to find a job before leaving? How did it all go? Did you have to retake any diploma equivalency exams to work abroad?

I have so many questions, but I’ll stick to the ones I’ve already asked, hoping this message reaches you.

Thank you in advance for any attention you give to my message. Best regards, Laly.
