Movie genres inspire student hair show

The tpm Annual Student Hair Show 2011 brought a glimpse of Hollywood to Liverpool last night as the ‘Eclectic Box Office’ student hair show inspired a showcase of Apprentice talent and creativity. John Grahame, lead judge from Toni & Guy Whitechapel, Liverpool commented that yet again tpm staff and learners had provided an arena and opportunity for young people and employers to shine their talent and services.
