The student must be a South African citizen;
The student must be the child of someone engaged in Hairdressing in the Southern Gauteng region (Divisions 101 and 105);

Students who are already studying, studying with loans or with partial bursaries and/or final year students are also eligible to apply;
Documentary proof will be required for the above registration of the student and costs of the course (to be provided by the institution/s concerned).
