Patrick Cameron is recognised worldwide as a leading authority when it comes to long hairdressing – and this is your opportunity to learn from him yourself
With a career spanning decades, a global social following built entirely through organic content, and a dedicated online education platform trusted by professional stylists in over 100 countries, Patrick Cameron brings unrivalled credibility to any scholarship programme bearing his name.
Long hairdressing is one of the most commercially rewarding services a stylist can offer, yet it remains consistently underrepresented in professional development programmes.
The Patrick Cameron Long Hair Scholarship addresses that gap directly. It is designed for stylists who want to go deeper – who are ready to commit to their craft, document their progress, and be seen by one of the best in the world.
Unlike scholarships that reward a single polished performance, this scholarship is built around a structured learning journey. Every applicant must complete challenges on Patrick’s dedicated long hair education platform, Style Challenge.
Applicants must complete three designated styles from the Essentials collection on Style Challenge – textured bouffant, classic pleat and basic wave. Each challenge requires step-by-step photographic documentation of the work, submitted through the platform for review.
Applicants must then complete three further styles of their own choosing from either the Red Carpet or Bridal Solutions collection on Style Challenge. Alongside the submission of their six looks, applicants are asked to share their experience and approach to dressing long hair and a specific moment when dressing long hair made a real difference to a client.
Applications open on the 15 June 2026, and will close on the 31 January 2027. One Grand Prize winner will be selected, with up to five runners-up also being selected.
The winner of the Patrick Cameron Long Hair Scholarship will receive:
- A personal and dedicated 1-on-1 with Patrick Cameron in May 2027
- Access to Long Hair – Patrick’s video education platform
- A signed copy of Patrick Cameron’s heritage bridal reference book
- Full Style Challenge certification
- A curated selection of Patrick Cameron’s professional long hair accessories from the Patrick Cameron Shop, including signature tools used in his on work
Commenting on the launch of the Scholarship, Patrick said: “I’m delighted to be partnering with the Fellowship for British Hairdressing to launch the Patrick Cameron Long Hair Scholarship. Long hair is one of the most rewarding skills you can offer your clients, whilst also being one of the most underrepresented skills in our professional development – and I’m going to change that.”
The Fellowship for British Hairdressing has built one of the industry’s most respected scholarship frameworks – a framework that identifies and elevates talented hairdressers at every stage of their career. Patrick believes in what the Fellowship stands for and wants to contribute to it in a meaningful way.
