Empowered Salon & Education, Dukinfield is a glamorous and modern salon specialising in luxurious Ice Head Spa™ treatments, high-quality hair extensions, customised facials, and advanced face and body therapies. Whether you're looking to relax, refresh, or completely transform your look, this is your one-stop destination for expert care and pampering.

The bright and spacious salon blends soft, calming tones with a crisp, professional design — offering a space that feels both high-end and welcoming.

As a VTCT Registered Training Provider, we’re proud to offer real-world experience to our students who are stepping into the next stage of their journey. These learners have already completed their essential training and are now building confidence and perfecting their skills through hands-on salon practice.

Most appointments are carried out by students, as our lead educator is only available one day a week (Thursdays). While our students aim to provide a five-star service, they may need a little extra time or occasionally make small mistakes — this is a crucial part of their development.

We kindly ask that only those who are supportive, patient, and happy to encourage our future professionals book with students. If you're likely to be upset if something isn't perfect, this may not be the right environment for you — and that’s okay!

But if you're happy to be part of their journey, we promise you'll leave knowing you made a difference while receiving a lovely service.
