Coming to the UK to do my training was a huge step for me having lived abroad most my life and also having only just turned 17 with no family in the UK, pretty scary, however all the staff at OICB were fantastic, the student accommodation was great and the course it's self was great, it was VERY hard work but worth every second. Since qualifying in CIBTAC and CIDESCO I have worked in two of the UK's top spas and since set up my own small day spa in Paphos Cyprus. Anyone local or from abroad looking to do this course I would highly recommended it. Good luck to all future students.
To start studying again was a huge decision. I am a Mum and English is not my mother tongue, but even so I wanted to take up the challenge. I do not regret, in OICB I met many wonderful people, from teachers, tutors and companions who helped me to finish successfully and work my way through The College, so I would recommend it with love and gratitude to The Oxford International College of Beauty.
