Care in the Chair™ × Mane Hook-Up | Recognising Domestic Abuse in the Salon
A free online session for UK hair stylists
Your chair is more than a seat — it's a sanctuary.
For many clients, a hair appointment is one of the few moments they have alone, away from home, in a space where they feel safe. That trust is powerful. And it means that as a stylist, you may be one of the first people to notice when something isn't right.
Care in the Chair™, the domestic abuse awareness movement for beauty professionals, is partnering with Mane Hook-Up to bring this vital training to the UK stylist community for the very first time.
In this free 60-minute online session, you'll learn:
Why the beauty chair is a uniquely powerful space for change
How to spot the signs of domestic abuse — including the ones that aren't obvious
The Notice → Name → Navigate framework: a simple, trauma-informed approach to responding when a client discloses harm
How to hold space safely without overstepping your role
Real salon scenarios across hair, wig installs, and makeup appointments
You don't need to be a counsellor or trained safeguarding officer. You just need to show up — and this session will give you the tools to do the rest.
