The Academy of Freelance Make Up is at the forefront of training successful world-famous fashion, photographic, and wedding make up artists. We are unlike other hair and make up schools, which don’t offer up-to-date teachers. At AOFM we offer training from some of the best international freelance hair and make up artists in the business. These artists currently work with the biggest fashion designers such as Versace, Armani and Prada and are represented by London and New York's leading hair and make up agencies. They also work on catwalk shows, TV shows, fashion magazines and with famous celebrities. As a result these artists are able to give you the most up-to-date teaching available. AOFM offer one, two, three, four and five-week, highly intensive hair and make up courses. We are the only make up school to be a sponsor of shows at LONDON, NEW YORK, MILAN and PARIS FASHION WEEKS supplying our students backstage. This has given us a leading reputation for being at the forefront of the fashion industry and giving our students the work experience they need. We also offer a huge selection of master classes, one of which is held by M.A.C Pro cosmetics as well as Fashion Week master classes in London and New York. All of our courses are only with top working freelance make up and hair stylists. Other make up schools offer only one teacher over a duration of a course giving you only one person’s view on how to apply make up. We teach using a different guest hair and make up artist every day, enabling you to experience their many skills and ways of applying the art of make up and hair styling, giving you a more unique and personal way to learn. We are the only UK make up and hair styling school whose hair and make up courses are sponsored and supported by Babyliss PRO, Bobbi Brown cosmetics, Benefit, Rimmel, Lancome, Shu Uemura cosmetics, Bare Escentuals, Dermalogica and St Tropez and we are of course supported by MAC. AOFM is also the only make up school to send students on over 500 jobs and work experience opportunities a year with clients such as designers at London, New York and Paris Fashion Week, Christian Dior and magazines like Vogue. Many schools have tried to imitate us but fail to offer their students the biggest names in the industry, contacts, after care and support and of course the 500 a year work placements we offer. Be wary and be sure to check closely as often there is little substance to their claims. We understand choosing the right training may be the biggest decision of your career and we are here to support you all the way.
