House of Haircuts Academy, Limassol

House of Haircuts is in Kato Polemidia, Limassol, not Nicosia, as older directory data recorded. It runs three operations from one site: a barbershop, a hair salon and a training academy, and brands itself as a VTCT barbering and hairdressing academy.

The credential is worth understanding precisely. VTCT is a British awarding body regulated by Ofqual, and approval as a VTCT centre is a real thing that lets a school deliver UK-recognised barbering qualifications, genuinely useful if you intend to work in Britain or Ireland. What it is not is Cypriot accreditation: the academy holds no HRDA approval, which is what subsidises training locally, and it does not appear in the Cyprus register of hairdressing schools. The academy also rents chairs to independent professionals. No course names, durations, syllabus or prices are published on the site, so all of that needs establishing directly.

On Cypriot credentials: private training bodies are licensed either as an IEK/ΣAEK or as a KΔBM lifelong learning centre, and a published licence number is the signal worth looking for. The professional barber licence itself comes through EOPPEP examination and generally requires documented working experience alongside the qualification. A course certificate on its own is not the licence.
